Describe your issue

We've noticed the following error on the production version of our app: https://react.dev/errors/185?invariant=185

Local error message:

---

To reproduce it (on macOS) you need to be using a mouse that isn't a Magic Trackpad/Mouse, or set the "Show scroll bars" option in Settings to "Always":

---

Steps to reproduce:

1. Open the listbox and select an option (e.g. the first one).
2. The application should crash.

Worth mentioning that you can prevent the error from occurring by either of the following options:

• Removing the overflow-auto from the element on L6.
• Commenting out the label on L8.

FYI I've made some minor changes to the codesandbox and repro steps to make it simpler, and ensure that the error always occurs.

We have the same issue, but it's so random I can't give a way to reproduce it.

I wasted three hours on this and in the end it doesn't look like I screwed anything up, so you can probably replicate the ListBox functionality with a Menu and Transition and you won't have this problem.

We have the same issue, it looks like the problem starts when the listbox options overflow the window, using portal (<Listbox.Options anchor="bottom" />) seems to resolve the problem for us.

We also have the same issue. In our case, we notice it only happens on Windows device and remove transition prop from ListboxOptions will fix it.
