Virtual keyboard doesn't load in Chrome Tab 10

Problem description Termux loaded from Play store to an Acer Chrome Tab 10. This is a Chromebook in tablet form - i.e. tablet running Chrome OS.

Steps to reproduce Tap to launch Termux. Then tap on the Termux screen to activate the keyboard. I can see the keyboard for a split second but it doesn't stay up - it disappears. I'm not able to make the keyboard come up and stay up.

Expected behavior The keyboard should load when the screen is tapped so that the user can start inputting commands at the terminal prompt.

Additional information There's no terminal output or warning. The keyboard simply fails to load. This is my first time attempting to use Termux in Chrome OS. So the keyboard has never worked for me.
