Bug Description

OS: OS X Yosemite
Calibre Version: 2.6
Last Version working correctly: 2.5

Expected behavior:

When editing an author or series metadata field, a drop down list appears that filters known options for that field. By tapping the up/down arrow keys, the user can highlight selections in the list. By pressing enter on a highlighted selection, the selected text is entered into the metadata field.

The user can choose to use a mouse to hover over the selections, and tap the left mouse key to achieve the same effect.

Actual behavior:

The drop down list appears as expected. The user can use the mouse to hover and select from the available choices.

If the user taps the up or down arrow keys, the drop down list disappears, and there is no feedback on wether or not the key presses have any other effect.
