Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue with a multiline TextInput on iOS using the reported speech-to-text and space-key sequence. Trace the TextInput native handling involved in speech input and editing, then verify that dictated text remains after pressing Space and add regression coverage if an existing test entry point is available.
