VM Horizon Client - App locks up when pasting into fields

Whenever I paste any information into one of the VM Horizon Client's dialog fields, the app hangs.  It'll hang for about a minute.  Sometimes I have to force it to close... other times I can wait it out... if I'm lucky that it doesn't time out that is and I have to start over.

I can bypass the issue by manually typing in convoluted generated passphrases, but this is horrible.  It wasn't always like this though.  It used to work fine.  I'd say the problem started about 3 releases ago.  I'm not sure what I can do to fix this.  Does anyone have any suggestions?

Version 5.2.1 (14979452)

Mac OSX Mojave 10.14.6

Hi, have you tried installing a known version that doesn't experience the issue? Have you tried uninstalling / reinstalling the Horizon client?

I reinstalled, no dice.  Then I went back a version or two (it's been a month since I tried) and it behaved the same.  I'm just not sure how far back to go.  I guess that'd be the next thing to try... a really old version.

If you have any other ideas, they'd be appreciated.  It's so weird that pasting into a field locks up the app.
