      Steps to Reproduce:

      1. Open the command line with a keyboard plugged in to the Xbox console
      2. Click into the command line
      3. begin to type with the keyboard

      Observed Results and Impact on Gameplay:
       The Xbox Onscreen Keyboard Interface appears and breaks the function of the command line.

      • The auto fill function of tilde key "~" doesn't work anymore. (Because it doesn't actually type in the command line anymore but the Keyboard Interface instead.)
      • Clunky navigation of the command/chatlog. (Navigating with the up or down arrow keys in the chatlog either doesn't work or the Keyboard Interface appears. Interestingly, this issue doesn't happen with the Xbox controllers D-Pad but only the Keyboards arrow keys.)
      • If text is highlighted when typing in the Keyboard Interface, it can very easily be accidently deleted. (When the Keyboard Interface appears, the text in the Keyboard Interface is initially highlighted. If you don't unhighlight the text before typing, it will delete the previously written text, meaning you have to back out of Keyboard Interface and start again.)
      • The chatlog doesn't track commands properly anymore. (The "/fill" command for example, say I would go to coordinates "X: 100. Y: 64, Z: 100" and type "/fill 100 64 100" using the tilde key function "~" to get the command in faster, then I would confirm it and go to the place I want filled in with blocks "X: 200, Y:74, Z: 200", then open the chat and navigate to previously typed command to continue with it "/fill 100 64 100 ~ ~ ~ stone 1 replace air".) This doesn't work anymore as for some reason it doesn't remember the first half of the command I previously typed, breaking this technique.

      Expected Results:
      The Xbox Onscreen Keyboard Interface should not appear when using a keyboard.

      Original Description
      I plug a keyboard into my Xbox to type much faster. However, in a recent update, Minecraft only uses the default Xbox typing interface to type all text, which slows down the game and makes it inconvenient to type commands or communicate via text. This is a very new issue, and for years I could type directly into the game via a plugged-in keyboard.
