Steps to reproduce
On a macOS computer, install the Keyman app, and within that, download the IPA (SIL) keyboard and select that as the input method.
Then open a sandbox vault, paste in the following table (yes, I did try to reduce it but with very limited success):
| X | | | | | |
| ------ | -------- | --- | ------ | ------ | ------- |
| m | n | ɲ | ŋ | | |
| pʰ p b | tʰ t d | c ɟ | k kʰ g | q ɢ | ʔ |
| f v | | ç ʝ | x ɣ | χ ʁ | h |
| | s z ʃ ʒ | ɕ ʑ | | | |
| | ɹ | j | | | |
| | r | | | ʀ | |
| | l | ʎ | | | |
Then, type type the following sequence of characters on your keyboard: iu=.
Did you follow the troubleshooting guide? [Y/N]
Yes
Expected result
When you press the =, you should see iu turn into iɯ.
This is what happens in other apps—I tried Firefox, Notion, and Notes.
Actual result
Instead, it becomes uɯ.

A similar thing occurs with ai=, which should be aɪ but instead becomes iɪ.
