Keyboard Input Freezes After First Letter in Obsidian on Galaxy Tab S9 Ultra with Book Cover Keyboard

Hello,
I’m experiencing a frustrating issue with Obsidian on my Galaxy Tab S9 Ultra. When I try to type using my genuine Samsung Book Cover Keyboard, only the first letter is entered, and then the keyboard stops responding within the Obsidian app.
Problem:

  • The keyboard input freezes after typing the first letter in Obsidian.
  • This issue only occurs in Obsidian; the keyboard works perfectly fine in all other apps (e.g., Samsung Notes, Google Docs, etc.).
  • The on-screen keyboard works without any issues in Obsidian.
  • The issue started happening about 02-02-2025 - I’m not sure what triggered it.
    Environment:
  • Device: Galaxy Tab S9 Ultra
  • Keyboard: Samsung Book Cover Keyboard (Original)
    Steps to Reproduce:
  • Open the Obsidian app.
  • Create a new note or open an existing one.
  • Start typing with the Book Cover Keyboard.
  • Observe that only the first letter is entered, and subsequent keystrokes are ignored.

Troubleshooting Steps I’ve Tried:

  • Restarted the Obsidian app.
  • Restarted my Galaxy Tab S9 Ultra.
  • Cleared the cache and data of the Obsidian app.
  • Uninstalled and reinstalled the Obsidian app.
  • Disabled all plugins in Obsidian (tested in Safe Mode).
  • Checked for Android system updates (none available).
  • Verified that “Show on-screen keyboard” is disabled in Samsung Keyboard settings.
    Additional Notes:
  • I have also tried resetting the Samsung Keyboard app’s data and cache.
  • The book cover is not faulty as it works perfectly in other apps.
    I’m at a loss for what to do next. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Has anyone else experienced this issue with the Galaxy Tab S9 Ultra and the Book Cover Keyboard?
    Thank you in advance for your assistance!
