Describe the bug

when using either multitask mode in Livecontainer with youtube in order for the keyboard to be able to control youtube’s video player you must first click on the player until then inputs will not work.

This is not the case if you run youtube normally as keyboard controlls will work when you first open a video without the need for that first input

Instructions to reproduce

Open youtube in multitask
open any video
attempt to use keyboard controls e.g. space to pause

What version of LiveContainer and iOS are you using?

3.5.60 and my IOS version is 18.2.1

Other info
