Android Central Question

As the title says, lock/power and home buttons occasionally stop responding. The phone itself is responsive and back, background apps touch "buttons" work, as well as the volume up/down buttons. After a while the unresponsive buttons start working again without me doing anything.

The phone has not been near/in water nor is there any physical damage.

Any ideas?
