Space bar not working.

Problem with using space bar when trying to post replies on YT or other sites. Can key text, but space bar does not work. On Google search page, can get only one space between words. Tried 2 different keyboards w/same problem. Doesn't seem to happen on Chrome or Safari. Re-installed Firefox with same results. Any thoughts, please? Thank you.

Google search box only accepting one space between words is a known issue.

Does space bar work for other sites in Troubleshoot Mode?

Zeroknight- Thanks for your response. Same with other sites as well. I went back to Chrome and Safari and tried again, and this time they both had problems w/ space bar as well. I'm beginning to think that something's flakey with the installation of Sonoma on my new Mac. Thanks again!
