As far as I know Chrome/Firefox are blocking secure API's if page is out of focus:

> https://w3c.github.io/webauthn/#abortoperation

> The visibility and focus state of the Window object determines whether the [[Create]](origin, options, sameOriginWithAncestors) and [[DiscoverFromExternalSource]](origin, options, sameOriginWithAncestors) operations should continue. When the Window object associated with the [Document loses focus, [[Create]](origin, options, sameOriginWithAncestors) and [[DiscoverFromExternalSource]](origin, options, sameOriginWithAncestors) operations SHOULD be aborted.

Again, this has issues for softAuthenticatos, like SoftU2F, which obviously changes a focus and so causes API to fail. So need careful consideration
