didSelectRowAt no longer working after tvOS 17 update

Hello, I have a UITableView that contains UITableViewCells.

Before the tvOS 17 update, things were working fine - however, now didSelectRowAt is no longer working. I printed a log in the tableView method but it doesn't get invoked at all.

The pressesBegan methods are still called on both the table and the cell.

Checklist:

  1. allowsSelection = true
  2. Interactions Enabled (on both table and cell)
  3. channel_list_table_view.dataSource = self
  4. channel_list_table_view.delegate = self

Here is the table code (omitted a lot):

@IBDesignable
class channel_list_view: UIView, UITableViewDelegate, UITableViewDataSource, slice_view_event_receiver, channel_list_table_cell_event_receiver {
	@IBOutlet weak var channel_list_table_view: UITableView!

  func common_init() {
		view = load_view_from_nib()
		view.frame = bounds
		addSubview(view)
		
		self.channel_list_table_view.allowsSelection = true
	
		/*
		 * Register the cell nib with the table so it knows how to create cells using the identifier
		 */
		channel_list_table_view.register(UINib(nibName: "channel_list_table_cell", bundle: nil), forCellReuseIdentifier: "channel_list_table_cell")
		 		 
		/*
		 * Link our instance to the table as its delegate and data source
		 */
		channel_list_table_view.dataSource = self
		channel_list_table_view.delegate = self
		
		channel_list_table_view.remembersLastFocusedIndexPath = true

		/*
		 * Left swift caises refocus on the controls bar
		 */
		let left_swipe_recogniser = UISwipeGestureRecognizer(target: self, action: #selector(swipe_gesture_occurred))
		left_swipe_recogniser.direction = .left
		view.addGestureRecognizer(left_swipe_recogniser)
	}

  override func pressesBegan(_ presses: Set<UIPress>, with event: UIPressesEvent?) {
		for press in presses {
			if press.type == .leftArrow {
				event_receiver?.leave_channel_list(selected_guide_item: nil)
				return
			}
		}
		
		super.pressesBegan(presses, with: event)
	}

  func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, didSelectRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) {
		// NOT GETTING CALLED
	}
}

I would appreciate any insight/help that anyone can spare. Help!
