This is due to the inner touch target element being a larger size than it's container, causing the dialog content to be a height shorter than it should be. A workaround is to add a margin-bottom: 4px to the button. The fix would need some thought since the button is supposed to have a 40px height visually and layout-wise, but for accessibility reasons it needs to be a minimum of 48px.
