Google Chrome Metro (Win 8 Prof on Dell Tablet): on-screen keyboard not working correctly for JQM inputs

Hello,

I am facing a strange problem when using Chrome Metro (on Win 8 Prof, Dell Tablet) and JQM various inputs like text fields, datetime fields, etc.. The on-screen keyboard appears just pops up and closes immediately again when "clicking" / tapping into a text input or text area. Additionally, 

I have faced this problem with my own mobile application as well as on the JQM demo site when using Chrome but not with IE 10. Has anyone seen this behavior before? Does JQM support Chrome Metro in general?

I would appreciate any hint about the cause of this issue. Thank you very much in advance.
