There are some non-answers to this issue so far. https://stackoverflow.com/a/77250333 Looks like a platform issue to me.

What about wrapping it in try/catch ? That way we can usually get the correct behavior but avoid the crash

I would say both are hacky solutions till we understand why exactly does this path crash in the second instance. Happy to make the change with try/catch

My guess it has something to do with the final point in the error you posted in the issue 3. Are you attempting to request focus during composition? Focus requests should be made in response to some event. Eg Modifier.clickable { focusRequester.requestFocus() } ... which seems entirely contrary to how we want to use it?

I think @tanany365 was thinking about similar issues in that PR https://github.com/jump-sdk/jetpack_compose_country_code_picker_emoji/pull/35
