Android Question Stop Soft Keyboard from showing

I am using IME exclusively. On occasion, someone swipes over an edittext and it causes the built-in keyboard to show.
Of course, I'm expecting IME control and wish to dismiss the built-in android keyboard if/when it appears.
Is there a way to detect the appearance of the built-in android keyboard and subsequently hide it?
Thanks,
Rusty
