Ubuntu 22.04 LTS uses the wayland whereas x11 was used before. Type in a terminal window echo $XDG_SESSION_TYPE to verify it is wayland which has this bug.

To fix the problem logout and before logging in click the settings button and select ubuntu on xorg and then log in and use echo command to verify your using x11.

I have not tried this but if you:

sudo vim /etc/gdm3/custom.conf

enter password

find #WaylandEnable=false (and then delete #)

:wq

reboot

should also fix problem
