Description
Description
Initially opened as an Expo bug but seems like a react native 0.76 bug.
Link to initial issue for context: https://github.com/expo/expo/issues/32868
When showing or hiding content, LayoutAnimation.configureNext(LayoutAnimation.Presets.easeInEaseOut); usually automatically applies the "next" animation (Like opening and closing an accordion).
With react-native 0.76 and the new Architecture, this does not work anymore.
Steps to reproduce
1- Start a new react native project (with or without expo)
2- Create an Accordion or Collapsible component like https://snack.expo.dev/@baltagih/b638ce
3- LayoutAnimation.configureNext() does not apply the animations

Research direction
Start with the LayoutAnimation.configureNext() call in the linked Expo Snack and reproduce it in a new React Native 0.76.1 project using the new Architecture. Compare behavior on Android and iOS; done means the next layout change animates again instead of silently doing nothing.
