Summary

In my expo project that works on all 3 platforms (web, ios, android) i have a custom header that is defined in the Root layout.
The header is a custom component that is passed to the Stack navigator as a screen option.
The issue is that when i navigate to a screen that is wrapped in another layout the headerTitle is not being displayed.

I have a folder strusture like this:

src/
  app/
    _layout.tsx
    (app)/
      _layout.tsx
      index.tsx

In the Root layout i return the Stack navigator with a custom header like this:

<Stack
  initialRouteName="(app)/index"
  screenOptions={{
    header: (props) => <Header {...props} />,
  }}
/>

In the App layout i return the Slot component like this:

return <Slot />;

In the (app)/index.tsx i modify the Screen options like this:

<Stack.Screen
  options={{
    headerTitle: () => <Logo size={85} />,
  }}
/>

The issue is that the headerTitle is not being displayed when i navigate to the (app)/index screen.
The headerTitle becomes undefined. Its probably overriden by the Slot component ?
If i remove (app)/_layout.tsx everything works fine.

I have tried defining Screen options inside the _layout.tsx but it doesn't work.
