ProgressRing is not visible on Windows 11 inside the ContentDialog

Question

In my UWP app I have a ContentDialog where I show ProgressRing while loading data.
On Windows 10 the ProgressRing shown as expected but on Windows 11 the ProgressRing is not shown. Any way to make it working?

Hi

I used the solution from GitHub, using a delay to reset the ProgressRing state, which worked, you can try it as a workaround.

 private async Task BugWorkaround() {
        this.progressRing.IsIndeterminate = false;
        this.progressRing.IsActive = false;
        await Task.Delay(System.TimeSpan.FromMilliseconds(100));
        this.progressRing.IsActive = true;
        this.progressRing.IsIndeterminate = true;
    }

Note that the closed bug is fixed in WinUI3/WinAppSDK 1.6, which isn't released yet; however, that fix won't affect UWP. https://github.com/microsoft/microsoft-ui-xaml/issues/5925#issuecomment-2040890993

Thank you.
