VLC is sometimes focused sometimes unfocused.

This is a problem that persists since a couple of versions.
I thought this would be fixed but appeared first in the 3.0.0 version.
I play a song/movie / whatever. I pause it with the spacebar or mouse.
Everything works so far. I minimize the VLC window or keep it open and
browse for example something on the internet.
I return to VLC. I double, triple, quadruple check if I've selected VLC.
You know in Windows 10 when in the taskbar you select something and it
has a brighter color? That kind of selection. And I press space bar
and VLC doesn't recognize it. I press "N" or "P" to switch to another song.
Nothing. I have to do this by mouse since version 3.0.0.
Sometimes I can use my keyboard, sometimes I can't.
And it's only on VLC and I've experienced this on 2 Windows PCs.
It doesn't matter if it's Windows 7, 8.0, 8.1 or 10.
