Bug Description

1. open nautilus

3. long hold your finger on the file
4. try to choose something from the menu

The menu disappears but the chosen menu item is not activated, and nothing happens.

This is a regression.

This is in both list and icon view. It was working before I updated to 22.04 from 21.10.
I see that you marked this a low importance, but it makes it extremely difficult to use the computer, as I have to keep my keyboard nearby and reattach it the tablet just to open a file, copy, paste, etc.

Bug settings are a bit tricky, touch only configurations represent a low percentage of the configurations but ineeded it is annoying for those setup, I'm changing to High
