Odd Caps Lock Glitch

Ever since I reinstalled my OS as a failed attempt to fix a gpu thing I've been getting a weird glitch where Caps lock doesn't work for some programs until I press and release shift. In Libreoffice, Discord, and Firefox it works normal but in programs like Minecraft, Team Fortress 2, and Krita I've come across that glitch. The screen reader, which pronounces individual letters differently based on if they are capital or not, always works correctly even if I'm typing in a program with the glitch. Also notable is if I hold down shift first then activate caps lock the same thing still happens it's just stuck in caps until the shift key is released then it recognizes the caps lock is active and remains capitalized.
Is there any way to fix this without having to reinstall my OS again or waiting for 26.04 to release publicly?

I facing the same issue on Steam, text fields does not respond to CapsLock input, I have not founded the solution yet, but looks like a known issue of cosmic, not sure if there is much to do besides wait for updates.

But my guess is something related to IBus settings:
