Xbox’s software (and hardware) keyboard (onscreen kb) is not allowed to type

UPDATE:  I plugged in a USB keyboard.   The keyboard controls work just fine, but when it comes time to type into the chat or a search box, it does not work.

 

Starting with 1.19.5x, my xbox no longer pops up the on-screen kb for text prompts such as search bars, chat windows, commands, etc.

 

It is worth noting the on-screen keyboard works outside of the game, just not in the game itself.   I have checked accessibility settings, keyboard settings, etc and have found no config options that might be causing this - at least, no INTUITIVE settings options.  I have tried the basic options of quitting the game, power cycling the xbox, santaria, and other schools of sorcery, none of which have successfully conjured the keyboard out of the shadow realm. 😒
