Description
Description
I have a nested matrix field which contains a CKEditor field, there are some instances where I am not able to paste content into the field or click the Source button, refreshing the page allows me to sometimes solve the Source button issue and paste content via the source
Additionally it is not possible to add a link either.
Upon saving, sometimes the all content is removed from the field.
Steps to reproduce
- Create a matrix field
- Add a nested matrix field with a CKEditor field within it
Additional info
- Craft version: 5.2.9
- PHP version: 8.3
- Database driver & version: MySQL 8
- Plugins & versions: CKEditor 4.1.0

Research direction
Start by reproducing the nested matrix and CKEditor setup using Craft 5.2.9, PHP 8.3, MySQL 8, and CKEditor 4.1.0. Check whether paste, Source, and link actions work consistently and whether content remains after saving; done means all listed actions work and content is retained.
