Anyone else experiencing this issue? I keep navigation buttons enabled on my Pixel 4XL and since upgrading to Android 11 all of the buttons stay 'lit' for a few seconds after pressing them. It doesn't seem to matter which app or anything like that. Thinking about wiping my device to see if that corrects it but I don't want to go through that if someone else has already tried it and it didn't fix it.

I tried with buttons it has that quick overlay but disappear and doesn't hang for few seconds.
 
If you go to gestures and watch the animation for few seconds there that's how mine behaves.Screenshot_20200922-191033.jpeg

You using a 3rd party launcher? Themes ? And I have to ask are you rooted?

No themes, not rooted but using Lawnchair. Also disabled developer settings, nothing seemed to fix it even your suggestions from last night. Guess it's just something Google needs to fix. Still gonna wipe and see.

You could try a couple more things before a factory reset. Reset app preferences and clear data/storage for the settings app. This will reset any personal change you did in the settings that could be the cause of that problem.
 
Yeah, a simple restart fixes it. It's just annoying to have to do that every once in a while.

Glad a restart worked for you. It didn't, however, work for me. The latest update cleared it up though.
