Bug when entering credentials for a Mac on LAN through File -> Open... -> Network

I've been experiencing a bug when trying to open a file on a remote machine through File -> Open... -> Network -> Connect As... where the Name/Password dialog won't let me enter more than one character into its text fields.

I'm able to get one more character in by toggling between the "Registered User" and "Guest" radio buttons, and it seems to fix itself entirely when I focus on another window before entering my credentials. Once it is "fixed", it doesn't happen again until the machine's restarted.

I was able to reproduce this on 15.1 and 15.1.1, but not on 15.0.1 (I do not currently have access to a machine running 15.2).

Here are some reproduction steps: (You will need a shared computer on LAN)

  • Restart your machine (un-check reopen windows when logging back in)
  • Open TextEdit
  • From the Menu Bar, click “File > Open...”
  • Select “Network” from the Open Dialog’s sidebar
  • Select your shared computer on LAN and click “Connect As…”
  • Try typing in the password field. This will only allow the first key press to produce a character in the text field. (In my case, the Name field was already populated, so the password field was automatically selected)
