Logitech space bar no longer works when connected to iPad Pro

I have been using a Logitech combo touch keypad for 2-3 years. Now the space bar no longer works. I thought the keyboard finally wore out so I purchased a new one and the space bar does not work. Why?

I don’t understand why that is so important?

Because countless reports of space bar not working in these forums have been fixed by making sure Full Keyboard Access is turned off. For unknown reasons it can get turned by mistake, and its default mode seems to assign space bar to "activate", which in practice can mean "do nothing."
