On screen keyboard popping up

When I use my external keyboard for my iPad the screen keyboard pops up momentarily with every key stroke. This is causing constant typos and highly obnoxious. How do I stop this. Started with new update.

Check and clean the Smart Connector (turn off your iPad and use a pencil eraser).
