Minimal code example

Code sample
final initialValue = selected != null
                ? data.firstWhere(
                    (element) => element.iaCaseType == selected,
                  )
                : null;
            print('IA type initial value ${initialValue?.iaTypeName}');
            return FormBuilderTypeAhead<IaTypes>(
              initialValue: initialValue,
              decoration: const InputDecoration(
                border: OutlineInputBorder(),
                labelText: 'IA Type',
                hintText: 'IA Type',
              ),
              name: 'ia_type',
              itemBuilder: (context, item) {
                return ListTile(title: Text(item.iaTypeName!));
              },
              selectionToTextTransformer: (suggestion) =>
                  suggestion.iaTypeName!,
              controller: TextEditingController(text: ''),
              validator: FormBuilderValidators.compose(
                  [FormBuilderValidators.required()]),
              suggestionsCallback: (query) {
                final pattern = RegExp('[^a-zA-Z0-9\s]');
                if (query.isNotEmpty) {
                  var lowercaseQuery = query.toLowerCase();
                  return data.where((IaTypes item) {
                    return item.iaTypeName!
                        .toLowerCase()
                        .replaceAll(pattern, '')
                        .contains(lowercaseQuery);
                  }).toList(growable: false)
                    ..sort((a, b) => a.iaTypeName!
                        .toLowerCase()
                        .indexOf(lowercaseQuery)
                        .compareTo(b.iaTypeName!
                            .toLowerCase()
                            .indexOf(lowercaseQuery)));
                } else {
                  return data;
                }
              },
            );

Current Behavior

No preselected value is showing. Even though I have selected initialValue and passed it to intialvalue field in the FormBuilderTypeAhead

Expected Behavior

when initialvalue to be passed to filed it should show it as preseleted item

Steps To Reproduce
