- [X] The issue can be reproduced on a stable release of Emacs, such as 27, 28, or 29. *(Unstable versions end in .50, .60, or .9x)*

### Expected behavior

When I enable
```
(setq +org-roam-auto-backlinks-buffer t)
```
and switch buffers when I'm in org-roam notes, I would expect being able to navigate through buffers with the arrow keys and selecting the buffer to open with Enter.

### Current behavior

When I enable
```
(setq +org-roam-auto-backlinks-buffer t)
```
and switch buffers when I'm in org-roam notes, the buffer switch is shown below but navigating through the open buffers stops and loses focus to the cursor inside an open buffer.

Here is a video showing this behavior. When I open a note in org-roam and try to switch buffers, the cursor gets caught in the next buffer instead of staying in the buffer selection area.

### Steps to reproduce

1. Open emacs after syncing up the auto-backlinks-buffer settings
2. Open an org-roam note.
3. Hit C-x b to switch buffers.
4. Use the arrows keys to navigate through open buffers.
