Any news about this issue?

I have the same issue.

Jetpack Compose version: 1.0.2

My code:

@ExperimentalComposeUiApi
@Composable
fun Code(modifier: Modifier = Modifier, onCodeInputted: (String) -> Unit = {}) {
    val passcodeLength = 6
    val codeArray = remember {
        Array(passcodeLength) {
            mutableStateOf(TextFieldValue(text = ""))
        }
    }
    val focusRequesters = remember {
        (0 until passcodeLength).map { FocusRequester() }
    }

    Row(modifier = modifier) {
        repeat(passcodeLength) { textFieldIndex ->
            OutlinedTextField(
                modifier = Modifier
                    .weight(1f)
                    .onPreviewKeyEvent {
                        if (it.type == KeyEventType.KeyDown && it.key == Key.Backspace &&
                            textFieldIndex != 0 && codeArray[textFieldIndex].value.text.isEmpty()
                        ) {
                            codeArray[textFieldIndex - 1].value =
                                codeArray[textFieldIndex - 1].value.copy(text = "")
                            focusRequesters[textFieldIndex - 1].requestFocus()
                        }
                        false
                    }
                    .focusRequester(focusRequesters[textFieldIndex]),
                value = codeArray[textFieldIndex].value,
                textStyle = LocalTextStyle.current.copy(
                    textAlign = TextAlign.Center
                ),
                singleLine = true,
                keyboardOptions = KeyboardOptions.Default.copy(
                    keyboardType = KeyboardType.Number,
                    imeAction = ImeAction.Next
                ),
                onValueChange = { newTextFieldValue ->
                    val newString = newTextFieldValue.text
                    if (newString.isDigitsOnly() && codeArray[textFieldIndex].value.text != newString) {
                        codeArray[textFieldIndex].value =
                            if (newString.length > 1) {
                                newTextFieldValue.copy(text = newString[0].toString())
                            } else newTextFieldValue
                        if (newString != "") {
                            val nextEmpty =
                                codeArray.indices.firstOrNull { codeArray[it].value.text == "" }
                            if (nextEmpty != null) {
                                focusRequesters[nextEmpty].requestFocus()
                            } else {
                                onCodeInputted(codeArray.joinToString(separator = "") { it.value.text })
                            }
                        }
                    }
                }
            )
            if (textFieldIndex != passcodeLength - 1) {
                Spacer(Modifier.width(10.dp))
            }
        }
    }
}

Started a doc to discuss fixes (it's internal-only, at least for now).

Probably the same bug, but I've noticed just using the backspace button in a single text field can also cause this to happen, it's like the keyboard/IME is being reloaded with every backspace!

Can you share repro code? I can definitely reproduced the issue with the code in the original issue description, but I haven't been able to reproduce with just backspace in a single field.
