Description
### Steps To Reproduce
https://github.com/bitwarden/android/issues/4601
Same as the above issue. I figured with the new app it might have been fixed but apparently that wasn't the case.
### Expected Result
Accessibility toggle turns on and remains enabled.
### Actual Result
Same as the issue prior, the toggle never turns on even when the accessibility permission has been given by the system.

No source file or test is named. Start by reproducing the problem on the stated Android 16 device and compare it with the linked Android issue #4601; trace the accessibility-toggle entry point identified there. Done means the permission-backed toggle turns on and remains enabled.
