A user's system sometimes detects an ENTER key scancode and so the default menu entry is immediately selected - this is when UEFI booting.

The usual cause is that a call to soak up key presses is not done in the code just before waiting for the ENTER key to be pressed during the timeout period. ???

It is probably dependant on BIOS, but nevertheless, the grub2 code should absorb any key-presses if 'timeout' is used in the menu.
