Selecting multiple links with cmd+click in Illustrator with Wacom Pen is broken.
I'm using a iMac Retina 5k 2020 with a Wacom Intuos Pro.
I've noticed that after one of Illustrator's Update, I was not able to select multiple links (cmd+click each link) in the Link Tab with my pen, but when I was using a mouse, there wasn't any problem.
I was going to blame Wacom, I've had issues with their updates before, but I've reverted to Illustrator 26.0 and it was working perfectly fine. I've updated older versions 1 by 1 to see when it started bugging and it looks like version 26.4 is the culprit and it kept on bugging in more recent versions, I have installed the latest v27 and it's still problematic. My Wacom drivers are all up to date, latest one was today.
I've uploaded videos of examples of the problems, one where I can select multiple links in the link tab v26.3.1 and another where it won't work, v26.4 and up. How can we fix this, I use this all the time, and selecting object one by one on my artboard is not going to work for me.
Please help!

The only time I can select multiple links is when I click, hold and drag but it's very rare that the links I need to select are all on top of each other. I do hope this gets resolved.

I can confirm that.
It feels like the problem is somehow caused with the tooltip 'Linked' label Ai draws above the item when you hover long enough. My record is two links, and when I click the third one,, all get deselected.
