'TextInputLayout TextInputEditText doesn't allows closing softkeyboard

I am using the material design implementation of a TextField.

            <com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout
                android:id="@+id/container_poi_name"
                android:layout_width="match_parent"
                android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                app:startIconDrawable="@drawable/baseline_place_black_24"
                android:hint="@string/location_name">
                <com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputEditText
                    android:layout_width="match_parent"
                    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                    android:inputType="text"
                    android:maxLines="1"
                    android:imeOptions="actionGo"
                    />
            </com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout>

On touch of the field - a soft keyboard opens and never closes. Even after leaving the NavGraph destination.

Also I miss the SoftKeyboard close button like on the picture. My triangle is showing to the left and doesnt close the keyboard.

Is there a possibility to configure the TextInputEditText to make the keyboard closeable?
