Troublesome Photoshop CS6 keyboard lockup issue on OS X

Hey, guys. I've had a recurring and very annoying problem on CS6 on OS X. I'm on OS X 10.8.2.

When I work with Photoshop for 10 minutes or more, it seems that something triggers a keyboard lockup, after which Photoshop, and all other apps, stop recognizing input from my keyboard. I can still get around with the mouse, and the computer is by no means frozen. I am left with no recourse other than to re-start my computer, and this may not be as huge an annoyance if I had an SSD, but it's rather time-consuming on a traditional hard drive.

I've Googled the issue for hours, and others have mentioned the same issue, and they're experiencing it on Photoshop versions other than CS6, and on a plethora of versions of OS X.

I've uninstalled, then re-installed Photoshop from scratch, and that seems to alleviate the issue for a day or two, but then it happens again.

This only happens to be after spending a few minutes using Photoshop, so I know for a fact that no other app is causing it.

Any and all help will be greatly appreciated.
