Safari 13 pops up 'Glass Pane' when using Selenium sendKeys() to <input type="file"> element

NOTE: The same thing is working as expected in Safari 12.1.2 but it's broken in Safari 13.0 & 13.1

Issue: System pops up 'Glass Pane' when using Selenium sendKeys() method to element.

Background: I want to upload a file (ex. image) in my application.

Safari 12.1.2 behaviour: There is no need to simulate the clicking of the "Browse" button. SafariDriver automatically enters the file path onto the file-selection text box of the element.

Safari 13 behaviour: System pops up 'Glass Pane' when using Selenium sendKeys() method to element.
