Crash when multiline TextInput gains focus

[jbcullis]

Environment

react-native -v: 15.0.0
npm ls react-native-macos: [email protected]
node -v: v23.1.0
npm -v: 10.9.0
yarn --version:
xcodebuild -version: Xcode 16.1 Build version 16B40

Steps to reproduce the bug

Create a fresh application, add a multiline textinput:
<TextInput
style={[{
fontWeight: 'bold',
borderWidth: 0,
borderColor: 'transparent',
margin: 0,
backgroundColor: 'yellow',
borderRadius: 5,
color: 'black',
// paddingTop: 16,
// paddingBottom: 16,
// paddingLeft: 10,
// paddingRight: 60,
//opacity: .9,
}]}
onChangeText={(text) => {
setMultiText(text);
}}
value={MultiText}
autoComplete={'off'}
autoCorrect={true}
multiline={true}
underlineColorAndroid='transparent'
editable={true}
/>

If you have padding on the element, it will crash the app when you grab focus.

Expected Behavior

Element should focus and not crash the app.

Actual Behavior

FAULT: NSInternalInconsistencyException: NSWindow: -_oldFirstResponderBeforeBecoming is not a valid message outside of a responder's implementation of -becomeFirstResponder.; (user info absent)

Reproducible Demo
