Troubles with changing tools

Hi all,
I’ve been having some issues since I updated to SU pro 2025, when using the keyboard shortcuts. If I’m editing a group or component, and I am using the paint bucket to change materials, if I have to select the eyedrop tool, using Alt key as always did, won’t change it from the bucket. I have to press the spacebar, to swap back to the select tool, then press B (bucket) again, and only then will allow me to use the Alt key to select materials.
But also happens when trying to puss or pull, and I am in the same situation, editing a group, that I will have to press the spacebar before being able to change tools.
Any one else having this issue? I tried changing keyboards, and the same thing happened.
Thanks in advance.

I find that happens if holding the Alt key but if I just tap Alt it works fine. Here’s an example of tapping Alt to get the eye dropper.
