Description

Steps to reproduce

Subject: Bug Report: Cannot dismiss auto-popup keyboard in Settings search bar (Pre-release)

Description:
In the latest pre-release build, navigating to the newly added search bar in the Settings menu automatically opens the on-screen keyboard. Once the keyboard appears, there is no way to dismiss or close it, making it impossible to navigate through the rest of the settings.

Steps to reproduce:

Open Settings.

Navigate or click on the new search bar at the top.

The keyboard automatically pops up.

Try to dismiss/close the keyboard (it remains stuck on screen).

Expected behavior

Selecting or focusing on the search bar should open the keyboard, but pressing the back button or clicking outside should dismiss it.

Actual behavior

The keyboard opens automatically when the search bar comes into focus, and there is no way to dismiss or close it, preventing further navigation.
