That happens to me if the search field is not focused when you start
typing, which it seems to not be initially by default. If I first click
the search field, also the first letter can be typed using a dead key.

Can you maybe report it as a separate issue, preferably upstream:

Bug description:
  I'm running an up-to-date Ubuntu Focal. I have a standard Spanish keyboard. 
Under X, if I try to input an accentuated character, such as á or ü, in places 
like the search field in the overview or when writing a folder name in the app 
grid, nothing appears. Under Wayland, it fails each time on the first input of 
an accentuated character, then it works.
