Emoji autocompleter sometimes leaves search string after replacement

See original GitHub issue

Describe the bug

When searching for an emoji via : autocompletion sometimes it leaves the search text after inserting the emoji. It only happens occasionally but I’ve found one reliable way to reproduce it, see below:

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Type :tada (it’s important to type exactly this)
Select the 🎉 emoji from the completer
The message composer will now say 🎉tada

Expected behavior

Tada text is removed

Smartphone (please complete the following information):

Device: Nexus 5X
OS: Android 8.1 (Lineage)

Additional context

App version and store Schildichat 1.1.7sc33 (I think this reproduces with EA as well)
Using AOSP keyboard.

This still happens to me. It also happens in a more confusing way, that I just did:

type “:a”
pick an emoji. The emoji appears and no text remains
type “b”. “ab” appears in the text box
