Other questions

Does the issue still occur after restarting your computer?

Yes

Have you tried any other versions of NVDA? If so, please report their behaviors.

Emoji panel can be navigated correctly in older alpha releases and on 2023.3

If NVDA add-ons are disabled, is your problem still occurring?

Yes

Does the issue still occur after you run the COM Registration Fixing Tool in NVDA's tools menu?

Yes

Cause and solution:

Windows 11 emoji panel text fields are seen as XAML edit fields. Resolving this wil require editing modern keyboard app module to remove the updated class when choosing overlay classes.

Thanks.
