My MacBook Pro 14" does this, and my M1 MacBook Air doesn't. They are both running Monterey 12.0.1.
I think I have found how to reproduce it. So basically:
It happens to me when doing "Command-tap" or "Shift-tap". Simple taps seem to be fine.
The first tap gets registered, the second one doesn't. The second tap actually has to be 3 taps. So what should be "tap-shift-tap" becomes "tap-shift-tap-tap-tap".
- If I release the shift/command key before the end of the 3 taps and press it again, the count of 3 is reset and I must start over. So for exemple it can become "tap-shift-tap-tap-release-shift-tap-tap-tap".
- If the selection ends at the item directly next to the first one (if only 2 items are selected, basically) then all works well. If the selection is more than one item away, then it happens.
- it doesn't happen at all with my Touch ID Magic Keyboard when I connect it.
- it does not happen on my M1 MacBook Air, ever.
- it only happens with TAPS, clicks are fine but I don't care, I am a tap person.
