A screen recording of 13.0-RC3 not responding to keyboard input:

At 01:40 on the timeline, keyboard input (visible with x11/screenkey in 
the host) has no effect on the FreeBSD guest.

For me, this seems to be easily reproducible; the screen recording above 
was made soon after beginning to work with 
<https://download.freebsd.org/ftp/releases/VM-IMAGES/13.0-RC3/amd64/Latest/FreeBSD-13.0-RC3-amd64.vhd.xz> 
attached to a new virtual machine.

I'd like to report the bug (and maybe have a fix before 13.0-RELEASE) 
but not before someone else can confirm it. To anyone who's interested: 
find me in Matrix or IRC for #freebsd and I'll let you have a copy of 
the file below, which can be used with FreeBSD-13.0-RC3-amd64.vhd.xz

FreeBSD-13.0-RC3-amd64.vhd.ova
