Calling chat by pressing enter is faulty

Development Getting Started & Setup
,
1

Branch: Build from the Unreal Launcher.

Build version: 4.8.0-2612545.

Detailed description of the issue:

I have an issue with ingame chat.

When I press “Enter” to open the chat during a match the chat closes the moment I release the “Enter” button.
When I keep the “Enter” button pressed I can type text and send the message by releasing the “Enter” button. Unforunately this is very inconvenient and I am sure this is not supposed to be the way it is meant to be used.

Sofar this happend every time I tried to use the chat and I only played QuickPlay Deathmatch.

Repro Steps:

  1. Start Epic Games Launcher
  2. Launch Unreal Tournament
  3. Press Play
  4. Choose QuickPlay Deathmatch
  5. When joined, try to use the chat.
