Can't interact with the UI elements inside the recording area #1231

After the updating Ubuntu to new version of 22.04.2 LTS I can't interact with the UI elements inside the recording area.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Start peek.
  2. Start any application [for ex. Sublime Text, Calculator etc.]
  3. Press record button.
  4. Try to type something or click interface buttons of the application while recording.

Expected result: The text is entered into the text area. Interaction is available with all application elements inside the Peek window.

Actual result: User can't type any text at all. User can't interact with any UI elements inside the recording area.

Same issue here

The typing issue has been reported already in #365, but you can't interact fully with other elements in the UI (eg can't close windows or resize them but you could interact with combo boxes). There's a workaround there in #365, I think the root issue is the same on both cases, focus on certain actions or something like that.
