Dropdown Option Not Selected By Keyboard

[wdews]

When jumping to options with keyboard prompts (i.e., a Country list after pressing "un" in rapid succession), the option gets changed in the trigger like it should, but the option is not then automatically selected in the corresponding dropdown.

I'm finding this behaviour to be an issue myself.

As I have a trigger on the select's value changing, it's firing when I 'jump' to an item in the dropdown. So in a country list, hitting 'u' doesn't take the user to the first menu item beginning with u, but instead selects the first item beginning with 'u'.

Shouldn't it be using the hover state, rather than the selected state?
