[Android][0.84.1] TouchableOpacity only receives onPress on text area after disabled-to-enabled transition

Description

TouchableOpacity only receives onPress on text area after disabled-to-enabled transition

Description

After upgrading from React Native 0.81.3 to 0.84.1, in one custom button component (TouchableOpacity enabled only when disabled is false), button becomes partially non-interactive on Android.

The button works as expected when initially disabled.
After filling inputs and the button becomes enabled, only the <Text> area inside the button is clickable.
The rest of the button area (left/right empty space / padded area) does not trigger onPress.

This did not happen in RN 0.81.3.

I could not reproduce this behavior in Expo Snack. This appears to be tied to our native app codepath in 0.84.1.

Expected behavior:
Full button area should be tappable when enabled (same as 0.81.3), not just text area.

Actual behavior:
After enabled state transition, tap target is reduced to the text node area.

Affected Platforms

Android (emulator and physical device).

Steps to reproduce

Steps to reproduce

1. Render a button that conditionally renders:
   • disabled/loading: <View ...>{...button content...}</View>
   • enabled: <TouchableOpacity ...>{...same content...}</TouchableOpacity>
2. Include non-text areas in content (for example leftComponent and/or rightComponent), not only text.
3. Start with disabled = true.
4. Enter input values so button becomes enabled.
5. On Android, tap multiple times on text area and on left/right empty areas.
6. Observe: only text area fires onPress, non-text areas do not.

Commencez par le chemin de gestion des touches Android de TouchableOpacity et reproduisez la transition de désactivé à activé en utilisant le pattern de composant et l’Expo Snack obligatoire lié dans l’issue. Comparez le comportement entre React Native 0.81.3 et 0.84.1, notamment les appuis sur le texte et sur les zones rembourrées à gauche et à droite ; c’est terminé lorsque toute la zone du bouton activé déclenche onPress.
