2-finger gesture not working on iPad Pro with trackpad

This seems like the same issue: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/252019247


I have an iPad Pro 2018 and recently picked up the Magic Keyboard for it (iOS 14.4.2). Occasionally, the two finger swipe gestures will stop working, while the one finger and three finger gestures seem to work. This does not seem to be a hardware issue, as I also experience it when using a Magic Trackpad paired with the iPad. This is a critical issue, since I can't scroll conveniently. Anyone else experiencing this or have a fix?

iPad Pro 11-inch Wi-Fi, Cellular

Please restart your iPad. This can seem like a small step, but it can resolve many issues like the one you're currently having:
