Entry.Focus() Not Working For Android

Hello,

Currently, I am using this setup to set focus to an Entry:

protected override void OnAppearing()
{
    base.OnAppearing();

    Entry emailEntry = this.FindByName<Entry>("emailEntry");
    emailEntry.Focus();
}

The Entry is part of a StackLayout. So on the iOS emulator it focuses on the entry and brings up a keyboard. On the Android emulator, however, it just sets focus to the entry, but does not bring up the keyboard. I've noticed other people having the same issues in the forums, but couldn't find an answer or workaround. Are there currently any plans to fix this, and what is a workaround I can use?

Thanks
