[Autocomplete] multiselect clearIndicator not working when focus is on autocomplete and limitTags is set

[jbrunner92]

Steps to reproduce

Link to live example: (required)

This is the mui demo itself for limiting tags: https://codesandbox.io/embed/z4jps3?module=/src/Demo.tsx&fontsize=12

Steps:

1. Select multiple options such that the textfield grows to more than 2 lines.
2. While the textfield is still focused, try to click on the clearIndicator in the end adornment slot.

Current behavior

I get mixed behavior. Usually it either loses focus on the textfield, sometimes it closes and reopens the autocomplete drop down.

Expected behavior

If I click the clear indicator, it should clear the text, even when the textfield has focus and the dropdown is opened. See the v5 demo - https://codesandbox.io/p/sandbox/2dhj9z?file=%2Fsrc%2Findex.tsx

@jbrunner92 I can't reproduce this in the sandbox (yet) - when this happens though, does the text (consistently) get cleared or not?

sorry, I forgot to respond to this. No, it does not clear the text. The menu closes and opens, which triggers the input to shrink and resize, and the clear button doesn’t trigger for some reason. This definitely did not happen with MUI v5, I even tried it with the same demo on the MUI webpage by toggling to v5, and it definitely was behaving appropriately. It might trigger sometimes, especially if you only have 2-3 lines of options selected when you click the clear button, but keep selecting more values, and the larger the input gets, the less it is likely to work.
