Bizarre Search UI element failure #876

@climategadgets

Description

@climategadgets

Action Taken

  • Click on the Search icon on top, or
  • Click on the Search menu item on the home screen

Expected Result

Typing a search term causes identical behavior in both cases

Actual Result

  • Search menu initiated result UI element is just fine
  • Top Search icon initiated result UI element is broken (see the screenshot below), clicking on elements causes a random (though always the same - apparently a hash match) track to be activated as a search result; this track's title is visible in blue instead of the "Search" UI element title (visible on the screenshot as "Serenity")

Additional Information

  • Observed only on Pixel 7 (Pixel 6 and Pixel 8 didn't exhibit this problem - possibly due to different usage pattern)
  • This problem doesn't exist initially after application installation, but once it shows up, it's there to stay
  • This problem survives application force close and reappears
  • This problem exists across at least two last versions (last time observed at 2.4.0)
  • The only solution found to fix this problem so far is to remove and reinstall the application
  • The track activated when this bug is different for different installation occurrences (which reinforces the hunch that it is hash based)
