Hide softkeyboard on dialog box loading in Android 4.0

Question

I have an activity which opens up a dialog that contains edittexts on a button click. As soon as the dialog opens the softkeyboard shows. I want to prevent this. Only when I click on the edittext in the dialog should the softkeyboard appear. I am using Android 4.

Thanks in advance

This should work is any case:

public void hideKeyboard() {

            mActivity.runOnUiThread(new Runnable() {
                public void run() {
                    InputMethodManager inputManager = (InputMethodManager) mActivity
                            .getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);
                    inputManager.hideSoftInputFromWindow(mActivity
                            .getCurrentFocus().getWindowToken(),
                            InputMethodManager.HIDE_NOT_ALWAYS);
                }
            });
        }
