Lock the K5 WITHOUT the Smart Key

My 2023 GT does the same thing - cannot lock the car using the door's inside lock button while the door is open. As I'm getting out of the car I like to lock the car using this button - key is in my pocket (and it still does this if the key is in the house) - that way there is no "beep" when I lock the doors.

Yes, I know the key fob will lock the door and I can use the outside handle button to lock it...

ALL the Kias I've owned prior you could lock the doors this way - my 2021 Forte GT can be locked this way.
