Bugs in Linux Mint 21 Cinnamon desktop environment

Hi everybody!

I discovered some blemishes on the freshly installed Linux Mint 21 Cinnamon.

Scenario 1:

1. Click and HOLD the left mouse button -> Any file or folder (Nemo or Desktop) OR click on an empty area of ​​the desktop OR click on an empty area or a button within a program.
2. Click and release the "superkey" ("windows key" or "tux-key") (Cinnamon main menu opens.)
3. Now release the left mouse button.

The Cinnamon main menu no longer reacts to any selection and remains in the foreground until the "super button" is pressed again.

Scenario 2:

1. Right-click and release on the desktop (regardless of whether it is an empty area or an object).

The brightness AND the volume can no longer be controlled via the FN key until the selection is deselected again with the LEFT mouse button. (Fn-key (hold) + Fx keys (press); depends on the keyboard)

Scenario 3:

1. Left click on the calendar OR the battery icon OR the volume control OR the network icon OR the eject icon OR the notification icon in the taskbar and release.

The brightness can no longer be controlled via the FN key until the selection is deselected again with the LEFT mouse button.

The report names no source files or tests. Start by reproducing the three scenarios in Cinnamon 5.4.12, then trace input handling for the desktop, main menu, taskbar, and keyboard controls. Done means opening or selecting these UI elements no longer prevents the reported menu, brightness, or volume controls from responding.
