Description

Greetings dear fellows.

We did set up Algolia search autocomplete with the help of @algolia/autocomplete-js. It is quite similar to what is defined in the query suggestions sandbox example from your docs.

It is rolled out in one of our services and works, however we are noticing cryptic errors coming from the library code.
We cannot reproduce it and it happens quite occasionally.
Sentry gives us the following traceback:

TypeError: Cannot read properties of null (reading 'item')
  at <anonymous>(./node_modules/@algolia/autocomplete-core/dist/esm/onKeyDown.js:116:20)
  at <object>.onKeyDown(./node_modules/@algolia/autocomplete-core/dist/esm/getPropGetters.js:179:9)
  at <object>.onKeyDown(./node_modules/@algolia/autocomplete-js/dist/esm/elements/Input.js:36:18)
  at eventProxy(./node_modules/@algolia/autocomplete-js/dist/esm/utils/setProperties.js:30:25)

Reproduction

Couldn't yet.

Expected behavior

No errors coming from the library.
