try Ctrl + Shift + Space


This is a shortcut for switching keyboard language, or switching to the emoji keyboard,

but I found it fixed the "keyboard keep showing up" problem for me.


When the language changes the software keyboard is hidden and behaves correctly.


I am on iOS 9 on the new iPad Pro and I'm using a Microsoft folding bluetooth keyboard.


hope this helps.
