Updating - still seeing this issue on Android devices in Angular Material 17.3.9. Closing the virtual keyboard allows scrolling in the autocomplete. But reopening the keyboard will disable it. Any update on the fix for this? Or any workaround on Android devices?

Hi, Any ideas why is it working properly on iOS? Do you have any plans for the fix?
