SwiftUI `.popover` isn't working within UIHostingConfiguration cell displayed in a UITableViewController

I'm trying to use SwiftUI cells using the .contentConfiguration APIs. However, the SwiftUI view that I'd like to use also needs to be able to display a popover. I'm able to present an alert, but not able to present a popover.

The following code uses a SwiftUIView as the cell view that works to present an .alert but does not work to present a .popover. Note the .popover does work in both Previews and when presented within a UIHostingController.

import UIKit
import SwiftUI

class ViewController: UITableViewController {
    override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()
        tableView.register(UITableViewCell.self, forCellReuseIdentifier: "cell")
    }
    
    override func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
        3
    }
    
    override func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
        let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "cell")!
        cell.contentConfiguration = UIHostingConfiguration { SwiftUIView(text: "Hello \(indexPath.row)") }

        return cell
    }
    
    override func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, didSelectRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) {
        present(UIHostingController(rootView: SwiftUIView(text: "full screen")), animated: true)
    }
}

struct SwiftUIView: View {
    @State var presentAlert: Bool = false
    @State var showPopover: Bool = false

    let text: String

    var body: some View {
        HStack {
            Text(text)
            Button("Present Alert") { presentAlert = true }
            Button("Present Popover") { showPopover = true }
        }.popover(isPresented: $showPopover) {
            Button("Hide Popover") {
                showPopover = false
            }
        }.alert(isPresented: $presentAlert) {
            Alert(title: Text("Alert"))
        }
    }
}

struct SwiftUIView_Previews: PreviewProvider {
    static var previews: some View {
        SwiftUIView(text: "Hello")
    }
}
