Android - Keyboard not showing up after closing the BottomSheet

[geriux]

Description

While working on this issue I found an issue on Android where opening a BottomSheet from a focused text block (Paragraph, Heading) would cause the keyboard to not show up after the BottomSheet has been closed and the block was still selected. It was found using the Link picker but it happens with the block settings as well.

Step-by-step reproduction instructions

On an Android device/simulator

1. Open the editor
2. Add a Paragraph block
3. Type some text
4. Tap on the three dots to open the block settings
5. See the keyboard getting dismissed and the BottomSheet opening
6. Close the settings
7. See the block is still selected but the keyboard didn't come back after closing the block settings BottomSheet

Expected behaviour

The Keyboard should be shown after the BottomSheet has been closed when the block is still selected. As it happens on the iOS platform.

Actual behaviour

The Keyboard stays hidden when the BottomSheet has been closed and the block is still selected.

Hi @dcalhoun - circling back to this issue, is it still occurring with the latest version of Gutenberg and WordPress? Thanks!

@kathrynwp yes, I was able to reproduce this on an Samsung Galaxy S20 (Android 12) with the WordPress 20.5 app.
