 Description   

When I type tap the chat button and the keyboard comes up along with the chat GUI, the GUI begins to strobe constantly. It doesn't happen when the keyboard is down when chat is open.
I would expect the chat window not to strobe.
This affects 1.0.5 beta, not 1.0.4.11

I've reproduced this on an LG G5, but only when a notification appears across the top of my screen causing MCPE to be semi-backgrounded. I am not using Google Keyboard. Perhaps this is related to the key popups when typing? My phone's stock keyboard doesn't produce key popups when typing.

Confirming sane issue on Google pixel

Can confirm on my Turkcell T70. It only happens when i'm on main (letters) keyboard section not other 2 symbol sections. I use SwiftKey Keyboard if that matters.

Aspergerian i can reproduce it

I'm probably one of the few to say this, but I can't reproduce this phenomenon.

I'm also updated to 1.0.5.0, and I tried going into chat, but nothing happened.

I tried messing around with the settings, still nothing.

Can also confirm. Galaxy S6 on Android 6.0.1 using Gboard. Affects 1.0.5 beta.
Edit: also happens when using the stock Samsung Keyboard.
