Autocomplete not working with chip input (does with regular input)

[mrtruebeliever]

I get folowing error when using autocompleteoptions for chip input

Uncaught TypeError: r.autocomplete is not a function
at w.fn.init.chips (materialize.min.js:6)

Steps to Reproduce (for bugs)

copy and paste from the demo page. When using the regular input, autocomplete does work without a problem.

<mz-chip-input [placeholder]="'Start typing'" [autocompleteOptions]="autocompleteOptions"></mz-chip-input>

My code:
// autocomplete autocompleteOptions: Materialize.AutoCompleteOptions = { data: { 'Apple': null, 'Microsoft': null, 'Google': 'assets/google_g_logo.png', } };

Package.json:

I figured out that when I load jquery 2.2.4 in my index.html, the chips autocomplete does work.
jQuery version 3.3.1 that I loaded via node_modules/jquery/dist/jquery.min.js in angular.json seems te be not compatible.
