Description
Hello,
I've encountered an issue with the Mapbox Maps integration within my Flutter-based application, specifically on the Android platform. When interacting with the attribution "i" icon present on the map, a dialog appears as expected, presenting various options. However, upon selecting any of these options, the dialog simply closes without proceeding to open the browser, which is the intended behavior. This issue is not present in the iOS version of the application, where selecting an option from the attribution dialog successfully launches the browser as intended.
To ensure this was not an isolated issue within my application, I also tested this behavior using the provided example application within this package. Unfortunately, the issue persists identically there, indicating it may be a broader issue with the Android implementation of the attribution dialog within this Flutter package.
Could you please look into this matter? Opening the browser from the attribution dialog options is crucial for maintaining the functionality and compliance of the application.
Thank you for your attention to this issue.
