This should be fixed by https://github.com/dotnet/maui/pull/19968, which is merged but not in a stable build yet. Could you try the nightly builds?

In terms of stable, my guess would be whatever the next service release is? I'm not on the MAUI team and I don't know the exact timetable and release schedule for when fixes roll out.

But you can try a nightly build since that does include the PR code I linked to, so you can try it now to see if it works, then when it does get release in a stable release you can switch back to it.
