Android Accessibility: Need to press tab key twice to move to next element for the first element of the page

Question

I am facing a problem in Android 13 where there is a scenario when a page is loaded, the user needs to access the elements by the keyboard for navigation.

When the page gets loaded it focus appears on the element but the selection does not show upon the element. So, as a result user needs to press Tab key twice to get selection back on that element.

It is working fine on Android 12 or below but facing the issue in Android 13.

Below are the codes:
