I also noticed that after clicking those buttons a few times the selection box on the desktop gets stuck (It still moves but it's there without left clicking

Can reproduce.

I can confirm this occurs only when a Virtual Desktop isn't drawing over this region of the Desktop Grid. 

1x4 grid: Desktop Bar is invisible and can be interacted with, tooltips flash as well. 
2x2 grid: The desktop tiles just happen to cover this area. With a 2x2 grid, the third VD is selectable between the gaps but no other buttons. 

I imagine this could be solved in QML by disabling interactivity while the Grid is engaged, if that's possible.
