Description

I am using expo for react-native development using their **EAS** build and **EAS** update services.
I have an issue with the TextInput component.
When I create an eas build for Android and run the app the cursor of the text box seems to stick to the top of the textbox as shown in the image
![image](https://github.com/callstack/react-native-paper/assets/25816427/21e5dadf-aae3-415a-900b-1a75a643ac5f)

When I do an **EAS** update without any code changes and the I relaunch the app the cursor appears in its correct position.
So Im not sure what happens between an eas build and eas update that makes the TextInput cursor work component without any code changes

| react-native-paper | ^5.10.3
| expo sdk | ^49.0.0

Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue with react-native-paper 5.10.3 and Expo SDK 49 using an Android EAS build, then compare the cursor position after an EAS update without code changes. Done means the TextInput cursor appears in the correct position in the Android build as well as after the update.
