This is what I do and it works without any further steps. If you want to select all of the text you can just do this:

ControlEditTextSelectionRec range = { 0, 0x7FFF };

err = SetControlData( inputView, kControlEntireControl, kControlEditTextSelectionTag, sizeof(ControlEditTextSelectionRec), &range );
