Description
Describe the bug
If I first work in the main area (block editor) of a post and then try to further fill the WYSIWYG editor with content, I can no longer select the WYSIWYG editor with the cursor. The click is ignored.
But if I didn't select content in the block editor with the cursor before (directly to the WYSIWYG editor in the sidebar), then I can select the editor and enter text. But as soon as I select again with the cursor text in the block editor, the WYSIWYG field does not work again - I can not click into it.
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- Create a WYSIWYG field
- Position this field on side
- Open the post and select Text in the main area
- Try to click in the WYSIWYG field, field is not selected, text cannot be written
Expected behavior
I want to edit text within the Block Editor and then insert more text into the WYSIWYG in the Sidebar. Then back to the main area to continue working and maybe again to the sidebar to the field.

Research direction
No source file, test, or entry point is identified in the issue. First reproduce the focus failure by switching between the block editor and the sidebar WYSIWYG field with the listed WordPress, PHP, ACF, and Arc versions. Done means the sidebar field accepts cursor focus and text after returning from the block editor.
