Description
If someone had just a moment, it would be tremendously helpful to get some feedback about the failed CIs here https://github.com/mne-tools/mne-python/pull/10913. Basically, the tests that use fake clicking and key presses with `matplotlib` fail when `ipympl` is added as a dependency but only on `Windows`. I've checked and they pass locally on `MacOS` as well as on the CIs. Is there some global variable or setting that `ipympl` might be modifying and maybe we could change it back? The difference between all the 22 tests failing and all the tests passing was just adding `ipympl` to the dependencies list, it was run before and after adding those. Thanks!

Research direction
Start with the failed Windows CI in pull request #10913 and identify the 22 tests that simulate matplotlib clicks and key presses. Compare runs before and after adding ipympl to the dependencies, then determine what change makes those tests pass on Windows with the dependency present.
