Description
When using innerblocks, any ACF fields that are coded to show AFTER the instance of innerBlocks won't show in the block editor, but render on the front end of the site.
I've gotten around this using flexbox and ordering them to show properly on the front end and ending each file with the innerBlocks instance, but this isn't the greatest way to do things and won't work for more complex blocks.
WP 5.7.1
ACF Pro 5.9.5
Happy to share access to staging sites with examples if needed.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue in WordPress 5.7.1 with ACF Pro 5.9.5 using a block with InnerBlocks followed by ACF fields, then compare the editor with the front end. Done means fields coded after InnerBlocks render within the block editor as they already do on the front end.
