Dragging makes mouse move with arrow keys

When dragging anything from Firefox (like text or image from page content, or the SSL icon to save a link to a page) it captures my arrow keys and interprets them as mouse movement. When I press alt during the drag the mouse movements become faster (more distance for every arrow key press).

I suspect Firefox as the culprit because I have not experienced this feature in any other application, and I drag around stuff between various applications with my mouse a lot.

This feature hinders me in dragging stuff to other virtual desktops because it blocks me from using my strg+alt+arrow-key shortcut to switch through my virtual desktops. Can this (obscure hidden and to me useless looking) feature be deactivated somehow?

Thank you for your help!

That sounds like a O/S issue. I have Windows and dragging with mouse doesn't conflict with the arrow keys. You might also want to post to a Linus forum and ask this as well.

Thanks for the reply @WestEnd !

I asked in the Manjaro Linux Forum here: https://forum.manjaro.org/t/drag-website-links-from-firefox-to-other-virtual-desktops/74789/8

You're comment about this being an O/S issue inspired me to test the feature on my other laptop running Linux Mint 19 Cinnamon, and there also with Firefox 65 the arrow keys are not captured by firefox during a mouse drag operation to move the mouse.

So I guess this issue must either be related to the combination of KDE and Firefox or due to the Arch Linux Firefox package (maybe some compile option used by Arch activates this feature?)
