Running in to a really weird crash with compose WebView When kotlinlang #compose

Running in to a really weird crash with compose WebView. When navigating away from a screen that has a webview on it, we're getting a native crash related to "null pointer dereference". I've done a lot of googling and see it happens in the react framework often. Their solutions have not proven useful / are specific to that framework. I was wondering if anyone else has seen this crash and has fixed it? Our current compose version is

1.4.0-alpha02

and accompanist is

0.25.0

. Setting the WebView's layer to

View.LAYER_TYPE_SOFTWARE

does fix it, but the webpage is then blank. I'll post the the start of the stacktrace in 🧵 EDIT: Workaround found

Workaround was to set the webview's alpha to .99f inside the factory portion of the

AndroidView

composable. 😓
