Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue with Transcribro enabled in Moonlight on Android 15 using the reported Pixel 6 setup, then compare its input with Florisboard and Google Keyboard. Done means keyboard words are transmitted correctly in games without the random-character behavior; the payload names no source files or tests.
