Package: gnome-shell
Version: 3.38.6-1~deb11u1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,
A bug on gnome shell pomodoro extension let me without mouse and keyboar so I tried the Visual Keyboard.
To my surprise all touch "key button" works except the "Enter" one. So it was useless to.
I am using Xorg gnome-shell due to my setup requiring barriers mouse/keyboard netwxork sharing.


I expected that when I touch the "Enter" "key button" the command I entered in the gnome-terminal to be executed
and a newline to show up.
Nothing happened.

When I ssh'ed to the box with android and restarted gnome-shell I was able to press the Gnome OnScreen Keyboard
Enter "key button" with the mouse but still no go with the touchscreen.
`libinput debug-events` shows the TOUCH_UP and TOUCH_FRAME events when I touch the Enter button but nohting happens.


I believe this was working years ago. I do not use the visual keyboard much but I believe it was ok in the past (at that
time I believe the keyboard did not have the special keys for cli shell usage). I am not confident though.

Cheers,
Alban
