unbind your taunt button and bind it to something else, maybe

try 'bind buttonname' to see if it's bound to something weird, had the same problem with my gamepad

try doing host_writeconfig blahblahblah and see whats going on with yo mouse buttons. If that does not help try looking at your driver software and see if they're funky in there, I remember by default the side buttons on my DA were bound to like use item and ptt ingame.

alright so i did some more research into this and apparently the source engine gets really wonky when it comes to interpreting windows's built-in shortcuts. i had another part of my config that had "bind g +taunt" in it and removing that seems to have fixed it. the only solution right now is rebinding your taunt to something other than g.

Fix for macs: I played tf2 on a macbook pro for a while (kill me now/finally have a pc) and for any users who experience this same problem with mac's built in play/pause music button, you need to go into systems preferences and then keyboard and click the box titled 'Use all F1, F2, etc. keys as standard function keys' and then unbind all of them/rebind all of them in your autoexec. This fixes the problem and hitting the pause play button in conjunction with fn doesn't cause any wierd problems, at least in my experience. Kinda amusing that for once macs have a fix to a tf2 related problem and pcs don't.

bit of a dead thread, but I've recently run into this issue too, and I'd like clarify for more future Googlers that basically the Windows Play/Pause key command causes a "g" input in TF2. Anything you have bound to g will be triggered by that button.

whenever i press the play pause button my keyboard starts registering my inputs like 10 seconds later for 5 minutes, and its never done the g input thing, any thoughts?
