It's unfortunate that this workaround is needed, but in KeePass you can set a custom keystroke sequence to define what actions are performed during auto-type. R

It's unfortunate that this workaround is needed, but in KeePass you can set a custom keystroke sequence to define what actions are performed during auto-type. Right click > "Edit/view entry" > "Auto-Type" tab > Override default sequence:
I then entered {DELAY 3000}{PASSWORD}
Now I can log in to a full screen game that doesn't allow pasting (I type in the username by hand first). If I'm alt-tabbed out of the game with KeePass in focus, the three second delay is enough time to go from triggering auto-type to restoring the full screen game window and clicking on the password field to give it focus. I was unable to trigger KeePass autotype with the game already full screen.
If the account you're trying to log in to also has a long random username that needs to be auto-typed, you'll probably want a sequence like "{DELAY 3000}{USERNAME}{TAB}{PASSWORD}". Or, if the form doesn't allow you to tab from the username to the password field, you could use "{DELAY 3000}{USERNAME}{DELAY 3000}{PASSWORD}" and you can click on the password field during the second delay.
