Was osu! in fullscreen mode as you switched? Does it resolve after you restart osu?
If it happens in fullscreen mode again, switch to windowed mode or try to use the latest stable version.

I'm not going to be able to replicate this behavior from the details provided.

hmm.. well, let me see if I can explain it better.
I went to get the mail (I walked) and I had left osu! open.
I came back in about 30 minutes? And clicked osu!, I could see the main screen and could hear the music, but still couldn't move my cursor around.

Basically, leave your osu! open for 30-40 minutes without going on it, and see what happens

May I ask have you alt-tabbed out of osu! when you was using Chrome? Did your computer went into sleep due to the inactive timer on said computer?

Yea, I HAVE done it, but not recently
And uhh, yeah I guess, never set a timer, it just goes off on it's own when not being used

Windows's sleep mode breaks DirectX applications since always.
Try turning off the sleep timeout and check if in this period of time you'll get the same error, if you don't, it's isolated to the sleep mode (and, as far as I'm concerned, the devs can't do anything about it).

wait, I have NEVER touched the sleeptimer thingy, so would windows default-ly put a timer?
