Yes it will - dinput talks directly to kbd/mouse/joystick drivers. In fact this
whole bug is exactly about these cases - when window is created in the
different thread then the one asking and/or the thread that created window has
no message loop at all or during the game play.

The only proper way to fix this is the same as fixing dinput mouse - use xi2 to
get raw keyboard events from X.
