Current Behavior

While doing keyboard navigation, there's a case in the Combobox where it gets opened but none of its options are "selected", for example if you try to write on the Combobox input some value that does not correspond to any option

Once you're in this state and you press down arrow, the combobox popover will be closed an focus will go to the next cell in the grid

Expected Behavior

The focus should go to first option

Reproduction

Steps to reproduce

1. focus on the combobox
2. write something that does not exist in the options
   • this will open the combobox without having the focus on any option
3. press arrow down to try to navigate through the options
4. notice that the focus goes to the next cell right underneath, instead of to the options
