Gboard comma key adds space, not comma

Hello
I have a new Samsung Galaxy Fold 6 and I'm finding that, with the Gboard keyboard, when I press the comma key, it enters a space, instead of a comma. It's not every single time but almost. It also happens with the period key. I have "Auto-space after punctuation" turned off and I've cleared the storage cache.

Is this a bug or is there something I can do to fix this?
 
Welcome to Android Central! Just to confirm, when this happens, do you actually see the comma or period key actually highlight when you tap it and the space appears? Just want to make sure you're not actually tapping the spacebar inadvertently -- this does happen to me from time to time.
 
Hi B. Diddy
I'll have to test that to see if I'm just missing the key but I very much doubt it. I had this problem for a while now with the period key but only recently with the comma key.
 
Not saying it's impossible you have a problem, but I've had similar issues with Gboard and it's just a case of me not hitting the comma and period buttons right. I've had this issue ever since I had to switch away from Swype because of old muscle memory habits and not being fond of the lack of a chin on modern phones.
