Description

My .riv loads perfectly fine, but when the page containing said rive file is left idle for some time I get the following error, and some of the items within my rive file seem to get either hidden or unloaded.

TypeError: Cannot perform Construct on a detached ArrayBuffer
    at new Float32Array (<anonymous>)

I'm using "@rive-app/react-canvas": "^4.21.3",

Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue with @rive-app/react-canvas version ^4.21.3, leaving a page with a .riv file idle until the detached ArrayBuffer error appears. Trace the failure from the reported Float32Array construction and verify that the error and missing or hidden items no longer occur after the page remains idle.
