    Hello,
    Whenever my MacOS host goes to sleep, the mouse wheel stops working inside my Windows 11 guest.
    I can restore functionality by suspending and resuming the guest.
    Steps:
    1. Launch Windows 11 guest.
    2. Put MacOS host to sleep (or wait for sleep timeout).
    3. Wake MacOS host.
    4. Observe that mouse wheel does not work.
    5. Close Windows 11 guest (suspend/save).
    6. Reopen Windows 11 guest.
    7. Observe that mouse wheel functionality is restored.
    Let me know if you need a video!
    Regards,
    Amilcar
