Fullscreen modal appears that can't be dismissed due to input still controlling the character.

Summary

Occasionally, full-screen modals that appear in-game cannot be dismissed because the input gets into a bad state and is still trying to control the character. The character is in stasis, but the camera can be rotated. Pressing escape or any other key does not dismiss the modal.
