Video and audio keep playing but controls missing

Server Version#: PlexMediaServer-1.43.0.10492-121068a07-x86_64_DSM72
Player Version#: Plex-1.112.0.359-0d79a49f-x86_64

The same thing as described in this reddit thread: Video and audio keep playing, but can’t use any controls

Basically, I will be playing media in Plex Desktop app on Windows 11 and at some point the controls will be gone. No keyboard shortcut works to start/stop playback. I have to kill the app. When I open Plex again it will have the media in the lower right corner to resume and it will resume from a point that is before I killed the app. Presumably that is the point at which Plex had the issue.

No events in the Event Log that correlate to the Plex app issue. The Plex.log file does not show the error or anything specific that I think might be the error, but I am happy to post the log after I scrub it, if needed.

I have uninstalled Plex Desktop twice and even deleted everything in AppData and Registry just to be sure. It is still happening. Only started a few weeks ago for me. Anyone know why this is happening or how to fix it?
