Not sure if this was fixed, but I seem to be able to use both while focused on FGU. I am on mac and I set my PTT button to the tilde "~" key so it wasn't a FG mapped key.

I had this same issue yesterday during a game I was running -- kindof. I had everything working normal, then updated to fix the dice-sum issues, and when I relaunched as host Discord stopped working push to talk when inside of FG. If I alt tabbed out push to talk worked. I changed it to voice activated and it worked fine inside and outside of FG.
I'm pretty sure the issue is something just getting caught / stuck in memory. After shutting down last night and launching everything this morning it all works fine again.

I believe if you run discord as admin (right click on the discord icon -> run as admin) then push-to-talk will work even when FG is "in focus"

I tried running Discord as an admin but it still didn't work while in the FGU window.
But, I did find out that if I opened a 2nd instance of FGU, while the first is still open, that one my push to talk button would work fine in. I could close the 1st window afterwards.
I played around with it some more. After I run check for updates, that is when push to talk will no longer work. So, if you are having an issue with losing push to talk in discord, check for updates and let them install if any. Then restart FGU and don't check, just play.
I think it is something with the updater locking out keys being used by other programs when FGU is the active window.

To be honest, I haven't been able to replicate the fix since. It is likely like you said, an order of operations thing, getting the right combo.
