Please provide all the information requested. Issues that do not follow this format are likely to stall.

Description

For whatever reason when attaching accessibilityRole={'header'} to an element it is announcing 'heading' twice with TalkBack on. Testing the same component on iOS using VoiceOver achieves the expected result of it only announcing once.

React Native version:

61.4

Steps To Reproduce

Provide a detailed list of steps that reproduce the issue.

  1. Create some sort of component with 'accessibilityRole={'header'}`
  2. Test on iOS and Android

Expected Results

Talkback should announce 'header' only once when using TalkBack like it does with VoiceOver.
