Automation ids not showing in UI Automator Viewer

Since Xamarin.Forms version 5.0.0.2478 and newer, the UI Automator Viewer or any other similar app doesn't show Automation ids (Content desc) the second time you request for the UI hierarchy . It's working the first time you request for it, but doesn't work the second time and every other request after until the reset of the app.
Anyone else experiencing this issue ?
Thanks for any help.

Does the issue only occur on Xamarin.Forms version 5.0.0.2478 and newer?
If so, it is recommended to create an issue at Issues to make the product group aware of this.
