SKR-MINI-E3 v1.2 | Ender-5 | Ghost inputs on control panel when printing over USB #46

I'm having a really odd issue since upgrading my Ender-5 with the SKR Mini E3 V1.2. I have made adjustments to the Marlin source code BigTreeTech has provided to make it compatible with the Ender-5. Marlin bugfix 2.0.x is the version I got. I have a (hopefully accurate) list of changes I made to the provided source if needed. The firmware compiled and flashed without issue.

I use OctoPrint on a Raspberry Pi to run print jobs to this printer. Ever since swapping the board from the stock Creality one to the SKR Mini E3 v1.2, the Ender-5's control panel gets what I can only describe as "Ghost Inputs" (oOoOoOo). When OctoPrint is sent a job, and begins sending gcode to the Ender-5, the control panel on the Ender-5 will act like its registering inputs, and go through menu entries as if somebody was messing with the dial. It chirps as if somebody clicked the wheel as well. I haven't let it go through a print job over USB in its entirety because it started going into settings I really didn't want changed. That, and depending on how quick the inputs come in, I may not even see/know what changed in the first place to reverse.

If I send commands from the control panel, like to move x, y, z, the extruder, autolevel, home... basically anything, these symptoms don't happen. It seems to only happen when OctoPrint is sending gcode over USB to the printer.

I'm already using electrical tape over the 5v line of the USB cable as recommended by members in the community to deal with stability issues.

I use OctoPrint on a Raspberry Pi to remotely monitor, and stop the printer if there's a problem. so ripping out the Pi and using the SD Card to print directly on the Ender-5 really isn't an option for me. That, and this worked with the previous board without issues, so I'm skeptical it's the Pi.

Thoughts, folks? I can provide more information if required.

Oops. Wrong model of board. Sorry. I'll close this up.
