Changing tabs while a USB/Bluetooth keyboard is attached

I wouldn't normally post a bug to Mozilla (probably because your stuff normally works so well!) but I think this needs to be fixed.

When I have a USB or Bluetooth keyboard connected to my android (a Samsung Galaxy S5) I cannot open the tab list. It works ok without an external keyboard. My experience using Firefox with a keyboard is otherwise fine.

I can't find any answers by googling around. The app doesn't have a warning or setting to tell me what to do. I usually have to disconnect the keyboard or create a new tab (from the menu) to swap between tabs.

There seems to be no reason for this, so I assume it's a bug. If I'm wrong, and there's some keyboard shortcut, I can't find it anywhere.
