Touches don’t work on absolutely positioned child when it goes outside parent’s bounds (Android only)

Description

<GestureHandlerRootView style={styles.root}>
      <GestureDetector gesture={composedGesture}>
        <Animated.View style={styles.canvasWrapper}>
          // the red box
          <Animated.View style={[styles.canvasTransform, canvasAnimatedStyle]}>
            <Animated.View
              style={{
                position: 'absolute',
                left: 300,
                top: 0,
              }}
              collapsable={false}>
              <YoutubePlayer height={300} width={400} videoId={'HzL65tTeANs'} play={true} />
            </Animated.View>
          </Animated.View>
          <Animated.View style={focalPointStyle} pointerEvents="none" />
        </Animated.View>
      </GestureDetector>
</GestureHandlerRootView>

I have a parent <Animated.View> (the red box in my demo). Inside it, I have another <Animated.View> that’s absolutely positioned and contains a react-native-youtube-iframe player

When the absolutely positioned animated.view is inside the red box(the parent), everything works fine. I can play pause and interact with the video

But once it goes outside the parent bounds, the video stops receiving touches.

as you can see from my demo video that only the part of the video inside the red box receives touch events

Note: the problem is not related to react-native-youtube-iframe i tested it with a regular React Native component like <Switch /> and the same behavior occurs with only android

Steps to reproduce

1- Create a parent <Animated.View> that acts as a container

2- Inside it, create another <Animated.View> with position: 'absolute' and place it so that part of it goes outside the parent’s bounds.

3- Inside the absolutely positioned animated.view, render for example <Switch /> or even a WebView.

4- Run the app on Android.

5- Try interacting with the <Switch />:

When the absolutely positioned animated.view and the switch are inside the parent's layout, the switch works fine.

When you move the absolutely positioned animated.view and the switch are outside the parent’s layout. the switch doesn't work

6- Run the same code on iOS. everything works fine

Inizia eseguendo su Android il riproduttore Snack collegato e confronta il suo comportamento al tocco con quello di iOS, usando come punto di ingresso il figlio posizionato assolutamente che contiene uno Switch o una WebView. Traccia la gestione del tocco su Android per i figli che si estendono oltre i limiti del loro padre. Il lavoro è completato quando anche la parte esterna al padre riceve l’interazione, senza modificare il comportamento al suo interno.
