Description

### Steps to reproduce

1. Open any room
2. Type something in the text box (I had to use the rich text editor, the normal one crashes the app entirely)
4. Observe

Notes:
* The text only glitches out if you're sending English characters, it is fine in Chinese
* I cannot use the normal text editor at all, it crashes the app. I must use the one in labs.
* Every other app, as well as every other text input field works just fine. Messaging is the only problem.

### Outcome

#### What did you expect?
I expected the message to type properly

#### What happened instead?
The text box glitches out and deletes my messages
