TextInput Bubble disappears immediately after it appears

Description

Observation: On Android, when selecting text from a TextInput, the cut/copy/paste bubble only shows up for a few milliseconds then disappears. Far to quick to be of any use.

Expectation: The cut/copy/paste bubble should remain visible for multiple seconds or until focus on TextInput is lost.

from kivy.uix.textinput import TextInput

class Sample(App):
    def build(self):

Being able to control dismiss in #6432 should go a ways to working around this, but the ms timing of the bubble vanishing is definitely “unexpected” behaviour.

I hit this as well, under:
