Description

When using the keyboard for navigation through folders in the column view, the content of the opend folder (with Enter) doesn't show up in the column to the right. Instead it acts like if there wasn't a column view and opens the folder in the exact same column of the parent folder. When I open a folder with the mouse, it does work properly and shows the content of the opend folder in a new column to the right.

Steps To Reproduce

  1. Create a folder with a subfolder.
  2. Open the parent folder with the keyboard (Enter)

Opend the folder "Test" with the mouse. Child folder "Test1" showing up in the column to the right.
open_folder_with_mouse

Opend the folder "Test" with the keyboard (Enter). Child folder "Test1" showing up in the same column. The column to the right stays empty.
open_folder_with_keyboard_enter

Expected behavior

Child items of a folder should be displayed in the next right column when the folder ist opend with the keyboard (Enter), like it does when using the mouse.
