EditText Multiline - After hide of Keyboard its Singleline

Question

I have a EditText and if I type some text it will expand to the second line if the Text is too long.

So far so good.

But if I hide the keyboard the EditText converts to a SingeLine and without scrolling behaviour.

What's going on here?

<EditText
        android:id="@+id/etNote"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:gravity="center_vertical"
        android:fontFamily="sans-serif-light"
        android:inputType="textCapSentences|textMultiLine"
        android:lines="2"
        android:scrollbars="vertical"
        android:maxLines="3"
        android:textColor="@color/white"
        android:textColorHint="@color/background"
        android:textSize="25sp"
        />

On typing with keyboard open:

After keyboard hide:

I think I found the problem. In the main XML where the merge happens I have added by mistake an +id who was already there in another include layout with merge.

I removed that and now it works as it should. Really strange that I get no error about the doubled +id's!

Old code:

        <!-- Note -->
        <include layout="@layout/inc_reminder_note" android:id="+id/areaDate"/>

        <!-- Date and Time -->
        <include layout="@layout/inc_reminder_date_time"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_marginRight="16dp"/>

New code:

         <!-- Note -->
        <include layout="@layout/inc_reminder_note" />

        <!-- Date and Time -->
        <include layout="@layout/inc_reminder_date_time"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_marginRight="16dp"/>

The layout " inc_reminder_date_time " had also as id " areaDate ".
