TextInput inside TrueSheet does not focus reliably on Android (Expo SDK 52, RN 0.76)

[fkrein1]

Before submitting a new issue

• I tested using the latest version of the library, as the bug might be already fixed.
• I tested using a supported version of react native.
• I checked for possible duplicate issues, with possible answers.

Bug summary

First, thank you for maintaining this package!
On Android, TextInput fields inside a TrueSheet are very difficult to focus when using Expo SDK 52 and React Native 0.76 with newArch enabled and disabled. Tapping the input often does not bring up the keyboard or focus the field, making it hard for users to enter text.

• This issue does not occur on iOS.
• On Expo SDK 53 and React Native 0.79, the issue is resolved and TextInput works as expected.
• Reverting the changes to RootSheetView.kt on this commit in a patch fixed the issue.

Environment

• @lodev09/react-native-true-sheet: 2.0.5
• Expo SDK: 52
• React Native: 0.76
• newArch: true and false
• Platform: Android (device and simulator)

---

Expected behavior

Tapping the TextInput should reliably focus the field and bring up the keyboard.

---

Actual behavior

Tapping the TextInput often does nothing, or requires multiple taps to focus. The keyboard does not always appear.
