Description
Hello,
I think this example will show more than I can describe:
https://codesandbox.io/s/31r9vrq531?fontsize=14&module=%2Fexample.js
react-select component sets focus perfectly only in the first example,
but when we define options directly to it or recreate value by hand it sets focus on first element.
Why there is a difference?
best regards

Research direction
Start with the linked CodeSandbox and compare the first example with the cases that pass options directly or recreate value. Trace how react-select handles focus for each case; done means the selected option receives focus consistently in all examples.
