Several Seconds of freeze in brave browser when left unattended.

[Achilles-1]

Description

Brave freezes when I leave it untouched for some time, like watching videos without any interaction with the browser or going on some other app while its open in background.
I've to click several times to interact again with the browser. I can't exactly tell why. I've tried to reinstall, clear cache and do everything but it isn't working.

Steps to reproduce

I can't exactly reproduce it, but leaving brave unattended causes it.

Actual result

Brave freezes after a time of no interaction.

Expected result

Should immediately be interactive when switching work spaces or windows.
