Pressing enter or ctrl+enter no longer submits the prompt in copilot app in Windows 11

Hi.

In the copilot app in windows 11, I have to now always click on the up arrow to send the prompt to the AI which is very big pain. Previously if I pressed the enter key it would work and I would receive the responses. Any way to fix this?
