    This might be not the case here but from my experience with  1.1 on macOS and its Welcome screen; If the "Welcome screen" is still active behind the Inkscape window nothing works. I have to close the Welcome screen. That´s why I disabled it, because starting Inkscape via double click on Inkscape files for opening often hides the Welcome Screen and you simply can´t start to edit - until the WS is closed.
