Research direction
Investigate the autoselect behavior in the typeahead.js source code. Look at the core JavaScript files, particularly where dataset selection logic is implemented. The issue indicates that when multiple datasets are present, the autoselect function selects the first item from each dataset instead of only the first item of the first dataset. Check the code responsible for handling autoselect and dataset iteration. Consider reviewing any existing tests or documentation related to autoselect. The expected behavior is to select only the first item of the first dataset when multiple datasets are used.
