SUMMARY

When launching Kickoff using the super key and with the cursor positioned under one of the tabs, any attempts to search result in Kickoff switching to the tab the cursor was on, instead of performing the search.

Moving the cursor while hovering over the tab results in the hover event being propagated and the search working again.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Move cursor to where one of the tabs would be if Kickoff was open
2. Press super to open Kickoff
3. Start typing without moving the mouse/cursor

OBSERVED RESULT

Kickoff switches to the tab the cursor was on, instead of searching.
When removing the text from the search field, the contents of the Favourite tab show, but the wrong tab is highlighted at the bottom.

EXPECTED RESULT

Kickoff should perform a search.
When the search is canceled (by removing text in the field), the correct tab should show up (the one highlighted at the bottom).

> Fixed in Plasma 5.17 already!

I was unable to verify if it was fixed or not, as I had to leave this computer before KDE Neon was updated to 5.17, however I can still reproduce this bug now on a fully updated system, with the exact steps as before.
