Ctrl+V jumps my screen

I’ve been having this problem even since Roll20 did the interface change, and I was hoping it was just a bug that was going to get filtered out, but it’s still happening, so maybe someone can give a good tip on how to resolve it. Basically when I'm building a map, I do a lot of copy/pasting with Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V. Pretty standard keyboard shortcuts, but whenever I hit Ctrl+V, it is also jumps my screen to the southwest corner of whatever map I’m on, and while it doesn’t break anything, it is getting rather annoying. Thanks in advance.
I am having the same problem.

I have seen at least one other report of this, but have been unable to duplicate. When you paste, typically, the pasted object is centered on the last place you clicked on the VTT. Does the screen still jump if you click an origin point first? Does it happen in a private browsing window? (this might help identify interference from an extension)  Also, for those of you suffering the problem, it might help if you listed your browser and OS combination. There might be a commonality.

Win7 + Firefox here. I tried loading a campaign in Chrome, and it didn’t happen there. The weird part about this bug however is that sometimes it stops happening in firefox, but the bug always come back eventually. I think it may be somehow connected to the advanced keyboard shortcuts, and the scroll to function there, but that is just guess work on my part. Sometimes it goes away after I mess with that feature, and then come back later on.

Well shoot. Intermittent problems are really hard to troubleshoot. Can you make it happen at all in a private browsing/incognito window?

Whenever I use the text tool to write something on the board, it actives the bug, and Ctrl+V starts jumping my screen. If I reload the game, the bug is gone, and then it reappears when I write something new on the board.
