React Native useEffect works on file save

I am developing a video chat app using react-native-voximplant, everything works, but when the app loads first time, the login functionality is happening inside the useEffect. So, the problem is, when my HomeScreen mounts, the useEffects’ should fire and I should get logged in voximplant sdk and now if I tap on call icon, the following is shown in the console:

When HomeScreen mounts:

LOG Client: emit: no handlers for event: AuthResult
LOG Error while trying to login to voximplant:  {"code": 491, "name": "AuthResult", "result": false}
LOG Client: emit: no handlers for event: ConnectionEstablished

Now when I tap on call to make a call:

// after a second...

WARN Possible Unhandled Promise Rejection (id: 0):
"NOT_LOGGED_IN"

Now when I hit save (ctrl+s), I get logged in and now if I make a call, it works! I don’t know what I am doing wrong here. Is something wrong with useEffect or I’m doing something wrong?

The HomeScreen code:

import {Voximplant} from 'react-native-voximplant';

const HomeScreen = () => {
  const voximplant = Voximplant.getInstance();

  useEffect(() => {
    const signInToVoximplant = async () => {
      try {
        const fqUsername = '...'; // credentials are correct, don't worry about them.
        const password = '...';
        await voximplant.login(fqUsername, password);
      } catch (error) {
        console.log('Error while trying to login to voximplant: ', error);
      }
    };
    signInToVoximplant();
  }, []);

  useEffect(() => {
    const connect = async () => {
      const status = await voximplant.getClientState();
      if (status === Voximplant.ClientState.DISCONNECTED) {
        await voximplant.connect();
      } else if (status === Voximplant.ClientState.LOGGED_IN) {
        console.log('[INFO] VOXIMPLANT CONNECTED');
        return;
      }
    };
      connect();
    }, []);
  }
  
  return ...

The call will only work if I hit ctrl+s i.e. save the file, otherwise it will throw Unhandled Promise rejection... because it is not logged in, however I have written/provided the login inside the useEffect.
