Component used: Compose Version used: 2.38.1 Devices/Android versions reproduced on: Any

• 'androidx.hilt:hilt-navigation-compose:1.0.0-alpha03'

As per the code of

@Composable
@PublishedApi
internal fun createHiltViewModelFactory(
    viewModelStoreOwner: ViewModelStoreOwner
): ViewModelProvider.Factory? = if (viewModelStoreOwner is NavBackStackEntry) {
    HiltViewModelFactory(
        context = LocalContext.current,
        navBackStackEntry = viewModelStoreOwner
    )
} else {
    // Use the default factory provided by the ViewModelStoreOwner
    // and assume it is an @AndroidEntryPoint annotated fragment or activity
    null
}

The ViewModelStoreOwner only works if it is a NavBackStackEntry, but in reality, it should work with any arbitrary SavedStateRegistryOwner.
