Assistance Request targetted to a specific app is always running for every app

Tasker Version: 6.0.10

App Check Method: Accessibility

OS: LineageOS 19 (Android 12L)

When using the Assistance Request event profile,  even when it's targetted to a specific application and the application is not loaded,  the profile still executes.

Reproduce by:

1. Create Event Profile with: Assistance Request for Calculator.  Action is Flash some text.

2. Open any other app (eg. File Manager),  perform an assistance request,  and the Flash text will be shown.

I've narrowed down the issue. In the digital assistant app configuration area,  there are two toggleable configurations "Use text from screen" and "Use screenshot".  Previously I had BOTH disabled. When I was playing with "Get Screen Info (Assistant)",  I discovered that "Use text from screen" must be enabled for it to populate any of the variables. Looks like reading text from screen is required for either to function correctly. If this is applicable to other Android builds, it might make sense to add it to the online documentation?

Thanks for letting me know! :) I'll make sure to include that in the documentation!

Hi! Can you please export that as an URI (not a link, but a direct URI) and paste it here so I can then import it and test it myself?

Thanks in advance!
