🐞 iOS: Dictation Mic doesn't work properly with TextInput multiline

[imransilvake]

Description

I tried using Dictation mic on iOS with TextInput. It works fine when multiline is OFF. But it doesn't work if multiline is set to true. It paste the text to the input but as soon as I start to type, it removed the dictation text.

0.71.8

Steps to reproduce

Use the following Input and play with the dictation mic.

const [message, setMessage] = useState('');
<TextInput onChangeText={setMessage} value={message} multiline={true} />

Snack, code example, screenshot, or link to a repository

Minimal reproduction case is to just use TextInput with multiline set to True

<TextInput onChangeText={setMessage} value={message} multiline={true} />

Do you still experience this issue?

I have four years of experience maintaining facebook/react-native and I specialize in the Text and TextInput components. I currently have 58 facebook/react-native PRs.

If you still experience this issue, I will make sure to prepare a patched release with the fix.

Thanks a lot
