Bottom bar reappears whenever I click (not swipe) the screen

Description

I use SystemNavigationBar.navigationHide(); to hide the bottom bar. The bar does get hidden, though whenever I click the screen again the bar reappears. (I'm on Android 11 emulator, don't have access to a physical Android device)

Hi @canpoyrazoglu, can a sample screen recording be shared?

[canpoyrazoglu]

Hi @kadiraydinli when preparing to record I've noticed a few observations. Because of NDA I can't directly share my app screen, though when I commented out parts of my app (e.g. navigation controller) the problem stopped, so I suspect it's due to something in the navigation stack.

In addition, the problem is occuring on Nexus 5 Android 11 emulator, but not occuring on Pixel 7 Pro API 34. Will add more details when I can pinpoint what is causing it.
