Current Behavior

When using a MediaElement in either CollectionViewHandler2 or CarouselViewHandler2 (introduced in .NET 9 to improve CollectionView and CarouselView performance on iOS), a InvalidCastException is thrown:

System.InvalidCastException: Specified cast is not valid.

Expected Behavior

Developers should be able to use MediaElement in CarouselView and CollectionView with the new performant ItemsView2 handlers.

Steps To Reproduce

1. Clone the linked reproduction sample: https://github.com/TheCodeTraveler/CollectionViewHandler2BugRepro
2. Open CollectionViewHandler2BugRepro.csproj in either Visual Studio or Jet Brains Rider
3. Build/run CollectionViewHandler2BugRepro on iOS
4. When the app launches, confirm the app crashes with an InvalidCastException
