Same problem with Surface 1 after upgrading from 20 to 22. The Screen
Keyboard mostly works unless the physical keyboard is attached. When I'm
typing in passwords for pop-up windows i.e. Wi-Fi password it never
works. It just displays the keyboard but doesn't register any inputs.
Other times it just seems to not work at random, meaning not showing the
Keyboard or not registering inputs. I am running the Surface Linux
Kernel. Also it seems to be more stable with x11 than Wayland.

Title:
  22.04 Jammy: Lockscreen (but not login) on-screen keyboard touch keys
  do not work

Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Several people on reddit (many surface pro / go users, and myself as
  an HP tablet pc user) have been experiencing an issue on Ubuntu 22.04
  (jammy jellyfish) where the gnome lockscreen on-screen keyboard is not
  functional, but the main ubuntu loginscreen on-screen keyboard is
  functional.

  
https://www.reddit.com/r/SurfaceLinux/comments/umeiqx/onscreen_keyboard_doesnt_register_key_presses_in/

  Steps to reproduce:

  0) Ensure you have Screen Keyboard enabled in the accessibility menu.
  1) From a logged-in state, Go to upper right corner and click Lock
  2) Turn device back on so 'user lockscreen' comes back on, try to log in 
using touchscreen on-screen keyboard.
  3) Observe key presses don't work.
  4) Try to close login password prompt such that switch user login button 
appears.
  5) Touch switch user login button, leading to 'login screen' (black with 
ubuntu logo)
  6) Select user, try to log in using touchscreen on-screen keyboard and 
observe it works.

  See demo video: https://youtu.be/RjfRZOmwsgs

  (NOTE: In the video there's another separate issue here in regards to
  the 'login screen' not having awareness of tablet screen orientation)

  This was observed on 22.04, I didn't experience this issue on 21.10
