Error: dispatchViewManagerCommand: found null reactTag, js engine: hermes

Sometimes during setInputState, I get this error, which crashes the app on release APK builds: Error: dispatchViewManagerCommand: found null reactTag, js engine: hermes

I managed to fix it by adding a null check in this file Rive.tsx, but I'm not sure why this occurs yet.

const setInputState = useCallback<RiveRef['setInputState']>(
      (triggerStateMachineName, inputName, value) => {
        // added null check
        let nodeHandle = findNodeHandle(riveRef.current);
        if(nodeHandle === null) {
          console.error('RiveRef is not available');
          return;
        }

        if (typeof value === 'boolean') {
          UIManager.dispatchViewManagerCommand(
            findNodeHandle(riveRef.current),
            ViewManagerMethod.setBooleanState,
            [triggerStateMachineName, inputName, value]
          );
        } else if (typeof value === 'number') {
          UIManager.dispatchViewManagerCommand(
            findNodeHandle(riveRef.current),
            ViewManagerMethod.setNumberState,
            [triggerStateMachineName, inputName, value]
          );
        }
      },
      []
    );
