Text is not correctly typed in on Chrome/Ubuntu

I am running Selenium tests on Chrome browser which on Linux machine with following details -

Linux version - Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS
Chrome Version - 79.0.3945.79
Linux Chromedriver - 79.0.3945.36 (https://chromedriver.storage.googleapis.com/index.html?path=79.0.3945.36/)

In some of the text input fields like following code snippet, I'm typing in like - http://www.example.com/pqr/xyz using sendKeys() method

<input type="text" id="drvUrl" name="Driver URL" placeholder="JDBC URL for the source database system" required="" class="k-textbox eq-widget k-invalid" aria-invalid="true">

But url is typed without special characters like httpwwwexamplecompqrxyz. All special characters are removed.

I've got work-around where first I type in url using JavascriptExecutor but that is not ideal way to automate it.

Is there better workaround for this? Also I could not find similar bug on Selenium WebDriver, in that case, just wanted to confirm before logging bug there.
