Do AppleScript incomplete typing

The following script in LiveCode 9.6.13 is not keystroking the variable consistently. It varies each time. It is as though something is timing out or the communications is stepping on itself.

This used to work consistently in previous versions of the Mac OS on Intel chips.

M2 MacBook Air
OS 15.3.1

Any ideas what is happening?

Thanks,

"end tell" into AScript

on putText Ascript

do Ascript as AppleScript
