Issue with BottomSheetModal closing when keyboard opens

[jacksonboyett]

I have a form inside of a BottomSheetModal. When I click on a BottomSheetTextInput and the native keyboard opens, if the BottomSheetModal reaches the top of the screen, the modal will dismiss automatically. This does not happen if the keyboard does not push the modal to reach the top of the screen. What is the best way for me to handle this?

I believe the intended behavior would be to have the BottomSheetModal extend past the top of the screen, but
I am open to other suggestions.

Here is my modal component:

return (
   <BottomSheetModal
     backgroundStyle={{ backgroundColor: theme.colors.background }}
     handleIndicatorStyle={{ backgroundColor: theme.colors.paragraph }}
     keyboardBehavior="interactive"
     keyboardBlurBehavior="restore"
     android_keyboardInputMode="adjustResize"
     ref={ref}
     backdropComponent={renderBackdrop}>
     {({ data }: { data?: ModalData }) => {
       const modalData = getModalData(data);

       return (
         <BottomSheetScrollView className="flex-1 dark:bg-background">
           <View className="flex-row items-center justify-between ios:pt-4 android:pt-7 px-4 pb-2">
             <Text className="font-inter text-md font-medium text-heading">
               {modalData ? getTitle(modalData) : 'Add Information'}
             </Text>
             <TouchableOpacity
               className="h-10 w-10 items-center justify-center"
               onPress={didClickClose}>
               <AntDesign name="close" color={theme.colors.paragraph} size={17} />
             </TouchableOpacity>
           </View>
           <View className="flex-1 p-4 mb-16">
             {modalData ? renderComponent(modalData) : null}
           </View>
         </BottomSheetScrollView>
       );
     }}
   </BottomSheetModal>
 );

Here is my layout:

    <GestureHandlerRootView style={{ flex: 1 }}>
      <KeyboardProvider>
              <BottomSheetModalProvider>
                    {children}
              </BottomSheetModalProvider>
      </KeyboardProvider>
    </GestureHandlerRootView>

Note that I am not using snap points. I would prefer not to use them but if I have to I will. The only thing that is relevant in the modalData component is that I use the BottomSheetTextInput component.

Attached is a video showin the behavior that I am trying to fix.
