NgxMask doesn't work with matAutocomplete

[anmal]

I'm trying to use NgxMask along with matAutocomplete.
They don't work together. I get an error:

Error: More than one custom value accessor matches form control with unspecified name attribute

Please, make them compatible or add your own autocomplete feature to NgxMask.

Thank you in advance!

I confirm that doesn't work, same error:

<div [formGroup]="formGroup">
  <mat-form-field style="width: 100%; margin-top: 5px">
    <input matInput
           [matDatepicker]="picker"
           autocomplete="off"
           placeholder="gg/mm/aaaa"
           formControlName="dateControl"
           mask="d0/M0/0000"
           [leadZeroDateTime]="true"
           (ngModelChange)="onDateChanged($event)"
           style="width: 100%">
    <mat-datepicker-toggle matSuffix [for]="picker" tabindex="-1">
      <mat-icon matDatepickerToggleIcon>expand_more</mat-icon>
    </mat-datepicker-toggle>
    <mat-datepicker #picker></mat-datepicker>
  </mat-form-field>
</div>

As I understood, the only way is to extend ngx-mask functionality with its own autocomplete implementation, but you can't use matAutocomplete along with ngx-mask because they both are custom form controls with their own ValueAccessor. But angular allows you to use only one ValueAccessor. You can either implement your own autocomplete for ngx-mask form controls, or your own mask for matAutocomplete form controls (that was our way).

I had the same problem: I needed to mask a MatAutocomplete.

Similar to what anmal did we "hacked" a vanilla-text-mask to the MatAutocomplete input. Our only problem with vanilla-text-mask was that it has no type definitions.

Hello. I have this problem with matAutocomplete too. Do you have any news? Or any idea where the root cause is coming from? From ngx-mask or from Angular Material?
