Sort by Price not working on CatalogSearch Page in Magento 2

[kapildev-symberity]

I have setup Magneto ver 2.1.9. I got an issue on catalogsearch page that sort by price not working after change Product Listing Sort by Price from magento backend.

Preconditions

1. Magneto ver. 2.1.9
2. PHP ver. 7.0.25

Steps to reproduce

1. Go to stores -> catalog -> catalog -> storefront -> Product Listing Sort by -> Price
2. Save Config

Expected result

1. Go to website and search any product
2. By default result sorted by relevance. When change sorting from relevance to price the result should be sorted with price and in sorting dropdown price should select.

Actual result

1. Go to website and search any product
2. By default result sorted by relevance but when change sorting from relevance to price the result still sorted with relevance and in sorting dropdown relevance is selected.

I have also submit issue on magento stackexchange but I got suggestion to generate ticket on github.

Hello, I think I have located the fix in the code base:

In magento/module-catalog/Block/Product/ProductList/Toolbar.php

Replace
'orderDefault' => $this->_productListHelper->getDefaultSortField(),

With
'orderDefault' => $this->getOrderField(),

See this commit
4091835

It would be best practice to write a small module to override this block.

Hope this helps
Adam
