This is the problem I experienced as a person with disability using accessibility functions. Turns out that Stage Manager creates particular glitches when Stage Manager operations with Zoom and/or Accessibility options in Settings. If you experience this problem, please check out the ChatGPT link with all of the troubleshooting I needed to do with it to fix the issue. Bottom line is this. If you want to connect anything other than the $599 AU iPad Pro Keyboard, you are likely to experience problems. Your best fix is to keep Stage Manager turned off.
