mention autosuggest not working on comment form

WP 5.2.3
BP 4.4.0
Theme: MH Magazine Lite 2.8.6

Problem: When using front-end to COMMENT on blog posts, @mention does not auto-suggest in the comment form.

Auto suggest works on back-end when drafting blog posts.
If I use BP activity stream page to comment om a blog post, auto-suggest works.

I tried switching to more generic themes (twenty seventeen, etc) and autosuggest still does not pop up for @mention in the comment form.

I also tried several variations of this: https://buddydev.com/enabling-buddypress-mention-auto-suggestions-on-any-page/

Anyone have other ideas?

Thanks in advance for any help.

If I manually complete the mention in the comment form (@user-name), the mention is successfully executed. The @mention becomes a link and the mentioned user is notified.
