Clicking action in Alfred menu is sometimes ignored

Hi,

 

has anyone encountered this?

 

When I open action menu (e.g. file action menu or script filter of some workflow) and I click some action which is highlighted it sometimes does nothing. I count it is ignored like 1/3 of the cases. Sometimes I click even twice in concession and it is ignored.

 

It is probably somehow related to the new MacBook pro which I have bought recently. Before I worked with Alfred happily every day for like two years and this issue is not familiar to me. I have the new MacBook pro for 10 days and from the beginning the issue is present. I have tried carefully that I by mistake don't right click. I have tried external mouse also, doesn't help. I have tried clicking deliberately in other applications on the Mac whether it is just Mac related but it works just fine with other applications.

 

As you can imagine it is annoying as I am used to the fluent efficiency which Alfred usually provides and now it doesn't.

 

Let me know if I may provide you with some other details, logs, or whatever. Any thoughts on the matter are greatly appreciated. Thanks for your time.

Hmmm....I haven't seen this at all with a new MPB 13" which I've been using since late November (both with and without Better Touch Tool which is monitoring clicks etc....).  Do you have anything else running that is intercepting or monitoring mouse clicks?

Hi, thanks for your answer.

 

It is kind of sci-fi, I have reinstalled OS X, just for fun :-( , no change. I will investigate yet. It irritates me. I don't know about anything of such nature (monitoring clicks). Better Touch Tool I have installed and I am trying now but only after your message and btw thanks for the tip :-).
