Description

### Steps To Reproduce

1. Open the applicatioon
2. Go the the settings
3. Change the language from Default(English) to English.
4. Change the language back to default.

### Expected Result

The language of the application is always English

### Actual Result

The application language switches to Malayalam, and you have to switch it a few more times to get it back to English. Sometimes the authenticator opens in Malayalam.

### Screenshots or Videos

_No response_

### Additional Context

I had Englush(US) as the first language, and Malayalam as the second language in the languages list on Samsung S23 ONEUI 7.0 settings. The way I fixed this was problem by removing all other languages entirely from the list.

### Build Version

2025.6.1

### What server are you connecting to?

US

### Self-host Server Version

_No response_

### Environment Details

Samsung S23
OneUI 7.0
Android 15

### Issue Tracking Info

- [x] I understand that work is tracked outside of Github. A PR will be linked to this issue should one be opened to address it, but Bitwarden doesn't use fields like "assigned", "milestone", or "project" to track progress.
