[Q] Hardware home button does not work on first press (for screen shut down) topic

I am currently running the CM12 nightlies, stock kernel. I don't know for sure when this started but it has been this way for a few months.
I have long press home (hardware button) set to turn off the screen. It only works however, after I have tapped it once since it woke the last time.

Most of the other long press actions seem to work ok with the home button.

I read about some issue with the home button and how it was waiting for a double tap, so the single tap didn't seem to work, but that does not seem to be the issue, as the fix for that (turning off the double tap function) does not fix my issue.

I have only read of two other people with this same issue, but no solutions.

Menu behavior/recents long press blacklist topic

I noticed that certain apps do not let me use the menu key/button. When i hold down the recents key for the menu on things like google search, drive or nova launcher, nothing happens. I feel it vibrate like it registered, but no menu pops up. I tried uninstalling exposed, using gravity box to add a nav bar, lmt/pie launcher, and still no menu commands work.

there are workarounds to access the menu on all of these, but it's just kind of annoying. Like these apps are on a blacklist somewhere saying to ignore the menu input.

Can anyone confirm if this is the case with them as well? I noticed this on stock and on iron rom. i have the 8.4.

thanks!!!!
