Description
When we use the basic React example by using default package component export, it renders successfully.
However, changing logic to use useRive causes component, returned from useRive to render empty <canvas>.
Platform: MacOS 15.1, M2, Arc 1.74.0
Reproduction: https://codesandbox.io/p/sandbox/r5wj5x.
Found similar issue #36, but it was closed and there was no reproduction.

Research direction
Start with the linked CodeSandbox reproduction and compare the basic package component export with the useRive path. Trace the useRive entry point and observe why the returned component produces an empty canvas. Done means the reproduced useRive example renders the Rive content rather than an empty canvas.
