How to set a default on a searchable Select

When I make my Select searchable() it prevents the default value getting set. Is there a way around this? Select::make('status') ->options([ 'draft' => 'Draft', 'reviewing' => 'Reviewing', 'published' => 'Published', ]) ->searchable() //When I remove this the default gets set ok ->selectablePlaceholder(false) ->default('draft');

If you are using the panel builder, this should work on the create page. https://filamentphp.com/docs/3.x/forms/fields/getting-started#setting-a-default-value If you are using the form builder, make sure you added $this->form->fill() in the mount method https://filamentphp.com/docs/3.x/forms/adding-a-form-to-a-livewire-component#adding-the-form

It's the form builder. And I do already have $this->form->fill() in the mount method.

Select::make('status')
    ->options([
        'draft' => 'Draft',
        'reviewing' => 'Reviewing',
        'published' => 'Published',
    ])
    ->default('draft')
    ->searchable() //When I remove this the default gets set ok
    ->selectablePlaceholder(false);

Select::make('status')
    ->options([
        'draft' => 'Draft',
        'reviewing' => 'Reviewing',
        'published' => 'Published',
    ])
    ->default('draft')
    ->searchable() //When I remove this the default gets set ok
    ->selectablePlaceholder(false);

Does that change anything? I would also try ->default(['draft']) on the basis searchable might be searching an array, possibly.
