Phone app: How to dial a name with non-US characters?

I have a friend called Kåre Østergård. I can search him in contacts using the å and the Ø characters, but I am not able to find "Kåre" using the [Phone by Google](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.dialer) 's dial pad, that looks something *similar* to the image below. On previous OnePlus phones using previous android versions, I believe "Kare" would also find "Kåre", but not on my Google Pixel 6. So how do I dial Kåre Østergård using the stock Android phone dial?
