Selecting File/Folder Should be Immediate Upon Typing - Long Delay Exists

I have finally updated to the "new" version of Bridge, after holding onto the old one (version 12 I think) as long as possible until it was no longer available to download. There are a lot of things that are disappointing, but one of the main ones is that you aren't able to type and quickly navigate to a file/folder within the Content window. You type a letter or two, then it takes about a half a second to actually select the appropriate file name. This is very annoying. It should move instantly, the way it used to.

I'm on Windows 11, Bridge 16.0.1.18

Steps to reproduce:

Open Bridge

Navigate to folder

Type first letter of file

Expected result:

the intended file is immeditely selected

Actual restul:

the intended file is selected after a long gap
