Automatic column width is affected by usage of `glossaries`

Thanks for the nice package. I recently noticed the sizing of columns is affected by commands like \gls in glossaries. It seems to follow the width of the full name:

When I just write KWKG, the space is correctly defined:

Is that the case? I need a way to disable that. Do you need some reproducible code?

Of course, without which that is impossible for others to try and test, please provide a minimal testing code.

It's more like the expanded the glossary entry is not displayed correctly, so the issue is not what I said in the issue title.

glossaries will expand the same entry in the first appearance, so:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage{glossaries}

\usepackage{tabularray}
\UseTblrLibrary{booktabs}

\makeglossaries

\newacronym{ENTSO-E}{ENTSO-E}{European Network of Transmission System Operators for Electricity}

\title{How to create a glossary}
\author{ }
\date{ }

\begin{document}
\maketitle

% The first appearance will be expanded to include the full name.
\gls{ENTSO-E}

\begin{table*}[!ht]
  \centering
  \begin{tblr}{
      colspec={ll},
      width=\textwidth
    }
    \toprule
    Name & Description \\
    test & \gls{ENTSO-E} \\
    \bottomrule
  \end{tblr}
  \label{tab:Data}
\end{table*}

\clearpage

\printglossaries

\end{document}
