Current Behavior
When I try to type in Chinese using the Microsoft Bopomofo input method, I can successfully type the first word, but not the second one because pressing the space bar doesn't do anything.

Expected Behavior
I type the first word, press space and move on to the next word.
Steps To Reproduce
- set the language and input method to Chinese Traditional, Microsoft Bopomofo
- type the first word and press
space - you'll realize you can't.
Environment
- OS: Windows 11 24H2 26120.1930

Anything else?
It works only when I use Firefox
