Duplicate char when searching through apps

Question

When I press Meta and then start typing to look for an app, the first letter is written twice.For example, if I type "firefox", the search bar will display "ffirefox". I can manually press backspace after the first typed char, thus removing the 2nd unwanted f, but it is quite annoying... has anyone experienced this issue before or has any tip on how can I fix it? https://i.stack.imgur.com/cfsFJ.jpg

Does this happen only in the Activities input? What happens if you do the same in the terminal window or in a browser's search bar? — FedKad, Dec 04 '22 at 09:44

The culprit was the Dash to Dock extension. Disabling the setting "Show overview on startup" as someone suggested me here https://redd.it/zc59ql/ solved it
