Description
Current Behavior
Calling navigation.navigate("ExampleScreen") results in a hanging animation.
The navigation process finishes successful after about 5-10 seconds.
I updated all packages to the latest version, but no adjustment helped.
This issue only happens on the first call of the navigate function. After that everything is smooth.
Expected Behavior
Navigation animation should be smooth.
How to reproduce
Created StackNavigator, places multiple Screens inside it.
Navigate between the Screens.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the first-call delay with StackNavigator and navigation.navigate on the listed React Native, Expo, and navigation package versions. Trace the initial screen transition and compare it with later navigations; done means the first navigation animation is smooth and completes without the 5–10 second delay.
