Steam's virtual keyboard automatically poping-up when playing Counter-Strike 2

OS: SteamOS 3.8 - Main branch (Tested on a non-steamdeck device) All system information: https://gist.github.com/roguex957/6705b7a45356db468bb6ce2286f04ae2

Bug description and reproduction steps: After the recent Counter-Strike 2 updates, using both Gaming Mode or Desktop Mode, Steam's virtual keyboard will pop-up on your screen after launching CS2, even if you only have your keyboard and mouse connected. The bug is more critical using Gaming Mode, because it also randomly appears while playing or when you try to use something typeable, like the public chat or console.

I can confirm that it only happens when playing Counter-Strike 2. Any other game will not call the virtual keyboard randomly, which might confirm that the issue is more connected to the game than with SteamOS or Steam.
