SUMMARY
When opening Kickoff you are able to type some characters and it immediately starts searching. This doesn't work if you press the "Configure Application Launcher" button.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open kickoff 
2. Type anything -> Search works
3. Press the "Configure Application Launcher" button in the top-right of kickoff
4. Open kickoff again
5. Type anything -> Search doesn't work

OBSERVED RESULT
Search doesn't work until you click on the "Search" text box again

EXPECTED RESULT
It should always start the search.
