The key event handler was installed on the activity together with the state instance it captured, so it could keep talking to a state that is no longer the one that is drawn. That happens in practice: the scaffold state is recreated when one of its rememberSaveable keys changes, which it does right after the launcher starts (the window is measured, and the state is restored after the configuration change), and the activity then still holds the handler of the previous state. Typing on the home screen set the search query and started the page transition on the detached state, so the search page never appeared, while the query showed up in the search bar. The handler is now created without the state as a key and asks for the current state through a provider, and the activity's handler is refreshed on every composition instead of only when the handler instance changes. Verified on the Titan 2: typing on the home screen opens the search page with the character inserted, further characters append, the text field stays unfocused and the on-screen keyboard stays hidden.
