Description

Using FlashBuilder 4.5 i6 drop 2, Flex SDK build 4.5.0.20834

Steps to reproduce:

1. Create a Flex Mobile project for Android

2. Add this view:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:View xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"
title="HomeView"
keyDown="view1_keyDownHandler(event)">

<fx:Script>
<![CDATA[
import mx.events.FlexEvent;
protected function view1_keyDownHandler(event:KeyboardEvent):void

{ trace(event.target, event); }

]]
>
</fx:Script>

<s:actionContent>
<s:Button width="100%">Button</s:Button>
</s:actionContent>

</s:View>

3. Run the project on the desktop

4. Press any key -> KeyboardEvent is received by the view

5. Click the button

6. Press any key -> KeyboardEvent is not received by the view

Workaround (if any):

In a creationComplete handler of the view, add an identical event listener to navigator.actionBar
