I have a custom keyboard extension that provides special symbols that can’t be typed with a hardware keyboard, similar to the emoji keyboard. iOS automatically dismisses third-party keyboards when a hardware keyboard is connected (but it doesn’t for the emoji keyboard), which is undesirable for my keyboard (and others such as GIF and sticker keyboards).
My question is how do you keep your custom keyboard visible when a hardware keyboard is connected?
SwiftKey was able to do this (see here) but how?

When I disable predictive text on an IOS device keyboardAvoidingView no longer works when changing between the text keyboard and the emoji keyboard.
When you first focus on the textInput the keyboardAvoidingView works as expected, however if you then select the emoji keyboard option the keyboard avoiding view drops and the keyboard is covering the textInput.
Note this is only an issue on Apple devices when predictive text has been turned off in the settings.
Any suggestions on how to work around this would be great please.
