Quest Keyboard Overlay Won't Close When Updating Text Field

Hi, has anyone encountered an issue that stops you from closing the virtual keyboard when updating a text field? When I select an editable text field on a widget, and update the text the blue tick box closes the keyboard for a second before opening again.

I have tried testing the same thing with other widgets, and other text fields but the same issue occurs. I can't close the virtual keyboard if I update the text on any editable text fields on widgets. My app is running on a meta quest 2, built on UE5.1. Thanks

    I've discovered that the issue only occurs when there is a preview bar of what you're typing. When the text field is a password or if the keyboard language is not English, then there is no preview bar and the keyboard closes normally. Does anyone know how to remove this new preview bar or override the keyboard language? Thanks
