Starting in GNOME 46 touchscreen input on the X11 session has become unusable

the touchscreen is responsive and on the desktop itself (moving the cursor) but does not interact with most things

on GNOME 46 on the current version of Ubuntu Noble, touch input does NOT work with:
- On screen keyboard (touch is registered but no keystrokes get input)
- clicking options in gnome appindicators (indicators can be opened but clicking any option does nothing)
- iterating with application overview (cannot press left and right buttons or search bar)
- selecting textboxs
- any of the touch gestures (eg: swipe up from bottom to bringup keyboard)

All of the above worked just fine on GNOME 45 on Ubuntu Mantic (and Ubuntu Noble from March and earlier before it was "upgraded" to GNOME 46).

Tested on a fresh image as well as an old image from February running GNOME 45 upgraded to the latest packages with GNOME 46
