How can I make the down arrows cycle through search suggestions in the search bar instead of the search providers?

more options

I recently refreshed my computer and had to reinstall everything, including firefox. When I start typing in the search bar I am offered search suggestions as normal. It used to be that I could use the arrow keys on my keyboard to cycle through the suggestions. Now, the down arrow first cycles through all of the oneOff search providers and THEN jumps to the search suggestions. Is there a way to make it jump to the search results first?

No. Actually the option is already working. Plz check you have the latest version of firefox browser. I have tried with firefox 47.0

It perfectly works and I can press down arrow to select the suggestions given for the search.
