Laravel/Dusk-Tests: keys() not working (e.g. ARROW_DOWN, ENTER, ..)

I’m kind of new to Laravel and Dusk-Tests and encountering issues with the LaravelDuskBrowser keys()-method. It looks like, that the sent commands are ignored by Chrome. This is the code:

$browser->visit('/index')
    ->assertSee('secret phrase')
    ->pause(300)
    ->click('#selector')
    ->pause(1000)
    ->keys('#selector', [
        WebDriverKeys::DOWN,
        WebDriverKeys::DOWN,
        WebDriverKeys::ENTER,
    ])

What I try to do is to select the second element of a -field. While click() works and opens the dropdown, the keys() simply does nothing.

I’m wondering if this maybe related to me using a Mac (macOS 14.7) or with the current Chrome or Chromedriver (129.0.6668.58)

Thanks for your help!

I’ve setup a plain Laravel 11 project with a fresh Dusk installation and a sample page. The problem remains. Also tried to Debug the communication between Dusk and the Chromedriver. I can see, that the commands should be sent, but yeah. Nothing happens when I watch how Chrome is remotely controlled by the test.
