Research direction
Open the v6 forms combobox documentation at the linked search-menu-items example and reproduce the overlap by scrolling the options in Edge on Windows. Inspect the combobox search menu styles and related example markup to find why options appear behind the search box; done means scrolling no longer shows options through the search box.
