iPadOS 27 has broken multitasking while using presentation apps. Tapping a window other than the presentation makes the external display leave presenter mode. Depending on the app implementation the presentation either ends, or the app is left stuck in a position where the presentation has to be restarted.

Report the issue to the app developer or look at their help site, they need to adjust their app to work with ios 27.
What I am saying is that there is literally no way to change this behavior on iPadOS 27, other than having your app just leave presentation mode entirely whenever you tap somewhere else (as Keynote does). This is an OS regression, not something app developers can fix.
My understanding from developers I have contacted is that this is a regression in iPadOS 27 and no APIs have been made available to address it from Apple's side.

The developers had plenty of time to get their product lined up with ios 27. I highly doubt Apple didn't give them a heads up about it.
