Custom RadCombo does not show drop down icon. The Styles work. but icon does not always display.

Hi..
I created a simple custom Telerik Maui Combox control. With a similiar style as the Telerik documentation:  [Telerik Maui Controls Combobox Styling][1]


  [1]: https://docs.telerik.com/devtools/maui/controls/combobox/styling

    <Style TargetType="telerik:RadButton" x:Key="DropDownButtonStyle">
        <Setter Property="FontSize" Value="14"/>
        <Setter Property="HorizontalOptions" Value="Center"/>
        <Setter Property="VerticalOptions" Value="Center"/>
        <Setter Property="WidthRequest" Value="24"/>
        <Setter Property="HeightRequest" Value="24"/>
        <Setter Property="Padding" Value="0"/>
        <Setter Property="BackgroundColor" Value="Transparent"/>             
        <Setter Property="TextColor" Value="Blue"/>
        <Setter Property="Padding" Value="{OnPlatform Android='8, 2, 4, 2', iOS='4, 2, 12, 2', MacCatalyst='4, 0, 8, 0', WinUI='6, 0, 10, 0'}"/>
    </Style>

I just want to change the dropdown button to use a custom Icon. So I added:

    <Setter Property="BackgroundImage" Value="downarrow.png">

When I add the custom control to a view. It works!  But on initial load - the dropdown icon does not appear. Even after binding.  If I start selecting drop downs and perform other actions, the icons appear!  Why doesn't the icon appear on load/init?  It does finally appear.  How can I force it to show?  Here's the code for the control.

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>

I use the control like this:  Why doesn't my dropdown icon show when loaded?          

    <controls:CustomDropdown
            Margin="10,10,0,0"   
                                                        Width="30"
                                                           ItemsSource="{Binding Mapping.ListOptions}"
                                                           SelectedItem="{Binding Mapping.List, Mode=TwoWay}"
                                                           DisplayMemberPath="Name">
                                                     </controls:CustomDropdown>
