Description
### Describe the bug
There is an intermittent failure in our e2e which shows an issue in the wallet side: after installing a snap simple keyring and proceed with the next action, we get the error `npm:@metamask/snap-simple-keyring-snap was stopped and the request was cancelled. This is likely because the Snap crashed.`
Tests we've seen so far, in which the issue arises intermittently:
- Snap Account Contract interaction deposits to piggybank contract
- Create and remove Snap Account create snap account and remove it by removing snap
- Create Snap Account creates multiple Snap accounts with increasing numeric suffixes
### Expected behavior
no crash
### Screenshots/Recordings
### Steps to reproduce
Check logs in the failed test runs. The issue can be surfaced when we install the snap simple keyring and then perform action (but it's not happening always)

Research direction
Start by inspecting the logs from the three linked GitHub Actions runs and the e2e tests covering Snap Account Contract interaction deposits, Snap Account creation and removal, and multiple Snap accounts. Reproduce the sequence of installing the simple keyring snap and performing the next action. Done means the snap no longer crashes and the affected e2e tests pass reliably.
