Control center appears when using keyboard and trackpad

When I'm connected to the Mac Virtual Display, sometimes the control center will pop up while using a keyboard and trackpad. I don't know how to replicate it. I'm guessing the Vision Pro thinks I'm trying to use hand gestures. Anyone else experiencing this?

Vision Pro - MAC Virtual Display Magic Trackpad pointer and Magic Keyboard disappearing Anyone else having the trackpad pointer frequently disappear in the Mac Virtual Display, while remaining functional for other Vision Pro windows? This occurs when the trackpad/keyboard are bluetooth paired with either the MAC or the VP. The MAC trackpad still works, but touching the Magic Trackpad in the window causes the pointer to disappear. Fixes include reboot, toggling bluetooth, and powering on/off the trackpad keyboard, disconnecting/reconnecting the Virtual Display but none are permanent.

Apple Vision Pro turn off virtual keyboard I have connected an apple bluetooth keyboard to my Vision Pro. But the virtual keyboard keeps popping up and interrupting, rendering the device useless for writing (I'm using Scrivener). I followed the steps I found online, but it keeps reappearing and, again, it makes it impossible to write. I tried the whole "settings > Accessibility > keyboards.... thing multiple times both on and off.

Annoying and Erroneous "Input Temporarily Not Working" Message This happened in visionOS 1, and it seems to happen even more often in 2. I connect to my Mac to use the Vision Pro as my Mac screen. Everything works as it should. No problems. But the message "Input temporarily not working / Trying to reconnect, please wait" appears at the top of the Mac virtual screen. But there is no problem. The only input devices would be the trackpad and keyboard connected to my Mac. I have no Bluetooth input devices connected to the Vision Pro. And the keyboard and trackpad are working fine. What makes this a problem is that the message obscures the top middle of the Mac virtual screen. So it covers up critical Menu Bar items, toolbar buttons and even the address field in Safari. Anyone else experienced this? There's another post from May, but it is closed to new replies. I'm hoping someone knows a trick to get this message to go away. I tried switching the keyboard/trackpads on and off, connecting them with cables, and it doesn't make a difference.
