Description

When games are not focused, their fps seems to be limited to 1. This causes some frame-dependent games to glitch out, rendering some functionalities broken, such as:

"Mute on lose focus" either doesn't work at all or you have to wait a long time before it mutes.
Sound effects have a large gap in between. You will also experience this "timed sfx" symptom on some games where one sfx is played after another, with 1 second gap in between.
Game logic runs really slowly, to the point you can almost "pause" games that doesn't have a pause function built in by simply moving to another workspace. This is quite overpowered as you can even pause yourself in some online games to prevent recieving damage.

How to reproduce

Launch any frame-dependent game and move to another workspace. I've tested with:

Omori: have a fade out "mute on lose focus". now the volume decreases really slowly. sfxs on things such as dialogues now have a really big gap inbetween
Terraria: have glitched automute, have the "1 second gap sfx", and in online you can sometimes become invurnuable
Monster Hunter World: automute doesn't work, have a large gap between sfx, and allow semi-pausing the game. Switching back and forth in a cutscene also causes audio and graphic to desyncronize until the cutscene finishes.
Hogwarts legacy: switching workspace while in a cutscene will cause slightly bigger pauses between dialogue, and switching back will cause the cutscene to jump forward.
