Maybe using force option of click method will help you:

page.locator("some_selector").click( {force: true} );

Its a bit of a dirty way to do it but you can change the CSS if there is something there that makes it hidden e.g. a class or an attribute, or try and force the click using the DOM which is probably a better way to do it.

Locator locator = page.locator("YOUR LOCATOR HERE");
locator.evaluate("node => node.classList.remove('classToRemove');");
//I cannot stress enough that this is a last resort as it can be a bit flakey

//or you could try this which might be a better option for your
Locator locator = page.locator("YOUR LOCATOR HERE");
locator.evaluate("node => node.click();");

try dispatchEvent

Regardless of the visibility state of the element, click is dispatched. This is equivalent to calling element.click().

await element.dispatchEvent('click');
