Comment (by mduggan):

 Not showing the soft keyboard when a hardware keyboard is available is by
 design.  The code checks if one is available:
 https://github.com/scummvm/scummvm/blob/master/backends/platform/android/org/scummvm/scummvm/ScummVMActivity.java#L503

 However, I see that `isHWKeyboardConnected()` is not quite right for
 tablet mode (when you flip the keyboard around to use a Chromebook as a
 tablet device).  It's only checking for a keyboard existing, not if it is
 hidden.  When a Chromebook is in tablet mode it should return
 `hardKeyboardHidden == HARDKEYBOARDHIDDEN_YES`.

 Ideally the soft keyboard button should also be hidden while the hardware
 keyboard is usable.  I'll try to make a PR to fix both of those
