EDIT: For everyone looking for a solution, this worked for me:

Turns out I had this Alfred Appearance Compatibility Mode enabled - after switching to "Standard Mode" the issue disappeared for me! Thanks a ton @deanishe !
 
I can't remember ever enabling this, as far as I know I was never aware of that feature - could it be this was enabled by default when using Alfred since some very old version? I suppose "Standard Mode" is the current default, right?
 
EDIT: Seems like this Compatibility Mode was introduced in 2015: https://www.alfredapp.com/blog/releases/alfred-2-7-3-pre-release-to-improve-window-focus-reliability/
 
Well I guess I enabled it 6 years ago then.. 🤔
 
@Vero So there seems to be an issue with Monterey and Alfred's Appearance Compatibility Mode?

There is an alternative way to invoke Alfred. Create a Workflow and connect a Hotkey Trigger to a Run Script Action with Language set to /usr/bin/osascript (AppleScript) and Script tell application "Alfred 4" to search. You can download a ready-made Workflow.

If it works, it’s a seamless workaround until the cause is rooted. But even if it doesn’t work, it will still be important information.

@deanishe I have Things 3 that also work through keyboard shortcut ctrl+space, that seems to be working fine.

And as I said I had never experienced such behaviour ever before.

@Vero It is not about snippets. I am unable to open neither alfred nor clipboard manager with keyboard shortcuts when I click on the password field. And clicking on anything else afterwards (to lose the focus on password field) does not solve the problem. Only after I open Alfred again (by clicking on app icon on the dock) I am able to open and close alfred with cmd+space.
 
 

@Vero No I have never had this behaviour. And I can't open alfred with shortcuts even if I click away from the password field. I have to click open Alfred from the dock.

Today I updated to Monterey.
Neither Alfred nor Clipboard shortcut works after clicking on Password fields on Music app and also on the Bitwarden chrome extension password fields, say when adding a new login infos.
 
Any ideas?
