Accessibility Keyboard phantom layer issue on MacBook Pro
Dear Apple Support Team,
I'm heavily dependent on the Accessibility Keyboard due to mobility limitations (c3/c4 SCI), but it's become totally unusable. I use a sixteen-inch MacBook Pro, M-2 Max, 64GB, on Tahoe 26.1, the latest version. The accessibility keyboard leaves a phantom layer after it's dismissed. Think of it like the keys are still painted on the screen, invisible to me but not to macOS. So anywhere that layout once sat, a simple mouse click turns into... well, a keypress. Doesn't matter the app: Safari, Notes, Finder-nothing's safe. Open Notes, click below where the keyboard floated? It spits out letters instead. Hover over a link in Safari? Bam, it types or presses whatever key lives under there. I've reset keyboard settings, rebooted in safe mode, even nuked preferences-ghost stays.
I've attached a video: watch my cursor hit empty space and watch how it writes or scrolls or just makes that space unusual. Even changing the keyboard size affects that specific area of the screen as you can see. I depend on this tool every day; without it I'm stuck. Thanks.
