Have a look at

Setting >Accessibility > Keyboards > full Keyboard Access > commands

remove “space bar” from the “activate” field.

Space bar on Targus keyboard not operating in some apps? I’m using an IPad with a Targus keyboard. Out of the blue, the space bar doesn’t operate correctly in Pages or Numbers. Any quick fix for this? The keyboard is only a couple months old. Thanks!
