Infinite loop when permissions prompt is shown on site

[Brave-Matt]

Description

When I land on a site that requires a permission to be asked, I'm not allowed to move passed the prompt. Regardless of what buttons I press, I cannot allow, block or cancel the prompt away. I am able to continue using the site if I tap off the prompt completely, but then the permission still isn't granted.

Note that in the video below, I am attempting to tap any of the options on the prompt, none of which work:

Steps to reproduce

1. Visit a site that requires some permission (microphone, location, etc) in Brave
2. Attempt to select any option in order to allow or block the permission on the site
3. Get stuck in an infinite loop and be late for your meeting!
