Exit presentation mode

I'm on a MacBook Air M1.

Before Keynote 11.2 and Monterey I exited from the presentation mode using the esc key. In 11.2 and Monterey now the esc key doesn't work and, to exit from presentation mode, I have to press command-Q, like quitting the app. In this way the app doesn't quit but I exit from presentation mode. This is quite confusing and less practical. How to change it?

Thanks

There are a few bugs in Keynote running in Monterey with M1 Macs, so I'm not surprised using escape does not work.

Using command Q is a recognised way of coming out of play in all versions of Keynote, so use that as it works for you.
