Element not interactable even though it is in view (scrolled to) and visible #824

Trying to figure out why my script is unable to click on a button even though it is clearly visible and within screen view. This is the only exception I am getting:

  element not interactable
    (Session info: chrome=98.0.4758.102)
    (Driver info: chromedriver=98.0.4758.102 (273bf7ac8c909cde36982d27f66f3c70846a3718-refs/branch-heads/4758@{#1151}),platform=Windows NT 10.0.19043 x86_64) (WebDriver\Exception\ElementNotVisible)

Here's the code that verifies the element and its visibility

    public function getElement($selector, $type = 'xpath', $autodetect = true, $logMessage = true)
    {
        if ($autodetect) {
            $selectorData = $this->detectSelectorType($selector, $type);
            $type = $selectorData[0];
            $selector = $selectorData[1];
        }

        $element = $this->getSession()->getPage()->find($type, $selector);

        $this->log("Selector: ".$selector);

        if (empty($element)) {
            $this->lastElement = false;
            $errorMsg = "No html element found for {$type} selector: {$selector}";
            if ($logMessage) $this->debug($errorMsg);
            throw new Exception($errorMsg);
        } else if ($logMessage) {
            $this->debug("Found element for {$type} selector: {$selector}");
        }

        $this->lastElement = $element;
        $this->log("Element read for clicking");
        return $element;
}

Here's the call to click

    $this->getElement($selector, $selectorType)->click();

I'm running on chrome 98.0.4758.102, selenium 3.141 and the following behat/mink versions

  "behat/mink": "v1.7.1",
    "behat/mink-goutte-driver": "v1.2.1",
    "behat/mink-selenium2-driver": "*",
    "behat/behat": "v3.5.0",
    "behat/mink-extension": "v2.2",

I've already tried various implicit and explicit waits / scrolls but still no go
