Gboard/Sam K'board can't put in suggested words properly into Microsoft Apps

Galaxy Tab S9 Plus & Galaxy S24 Ultra

When I click on the suggested and/or correct word on the keyboard nothing happens. I've tried deleting the MS Apps, Gboard and re-installing and the problems is still there. It is also affecting the stock Samsung keyboard as well.

The problem has existed for a few months now and occured after the last MS update. I'm aware that other people are experiencing the same issue as me.

Given this is affecting both keyboards, the issue must be with Microsoft?

Which Microsoft apps are affected?

Definitely Word, One Note & PowerPoint. Don't use Excel in the same way as the other three. I'm getting the feeling it is a known issue since the update.
