Searchbar keyboard is switching back to alphabet characters immediately after entering one numeric character

See original GitHub issue

Description

Regardless of the type of Keyboard that is set, it tried all (Text, Chat, Default, Url)… when switching the keyboard to use the numeric characters, tapping any key enters that key but then immediately returns the keyboard to show the alphabet characters.

This makes entering consecutive numbers impossibly annoying.

Note

This behavior was seen on Android, both on emulator and after installing a release build on an Android device.

Steps to Reproduce

Create Maui app
In any page add a searchbar
Open the app on the android
Focus on the searchbar and use the virtual keyboard to enter a numeric character.

Hey there, I believe that android by default supports the 4th (number) row on the keyboard, so if it’s only numbers, you should have that turned on. I do agree that it should be fixed, but it’s not as big as some of the other issues (think crashes).
