Apple Vision Pro virtual monitors with macOS

I am finding a problem when using the vision, Pro OS with a macOS. When they are connected, there is an interrupt that gets transmitted constantly into the applications. This does not happen when using a direct HDMI input to a monitor. In order to fix the problem, you must click the mouse once to put you back into the proper screen. again, this only happens when using the virtual monitors. having your application freeze and seeing the menu bar is a pain while operating an application to unfreeze you must click the mouse once on the window you plan on using. Sorry for repeating myself, but when you plug the computer directly into the HDMI of a monitor, this works without any interruptions current installation is the latest OS for both the Mac and the Vision Pro the problem has been going on for months through several revisions. I have no idea why the Vision Pro in the macOS are behaving this way almost like there’s a handshake that’s below the surface. i’m looking for anyone who can verify or re-create it on their set up.

I used a very simple test. Using the virtual monitor, I opened system preferences on the Mac. And then waited. the system preferences window left-hand side selection grayed out as iif a different selection was made. doing the same test plugged in using the HDMI. The computer responded the way it should you opened up the system preferences window, and there was no change at all.

Hi, do you think you could provide a brief screen recording of the issue you're experiencing? I'm not sure exactly what you're saying the issue is.
