There are two ways to fix your problem.
1- Set the mouseEnabled property of the text field inside the button to false, like:
myButton.theText.mouseEnabled = false;
2- Or use the mouseChildren property of the button to prevent the child objects of the button to respond to mouse events.
myButton.mouseChildren = false;
