react-native-detox building on android blocked by proguard - react-native

Question

I've been trying to use detox to test e2e.
RN 0.57.0
I followed the integration steps for android but I'm blocked on trying to compile the project.
detox build -c android.emu.debug
It builds perfectly when I run the normal ./gradlew assembleRelease command.
Note: there were 27 duplicate class definitions.

You may need to add missing library jars or update their versions.
If your code works fine without the missing classes, you can suppress
the warnings with '-dontwarn' options.
(http://proguard.sourceforge.net/manual/troubleshooting.html#unresolvedclass)
Warning: there were 14 instances of library classes depending on program classes.
You must avoid such dependencies, since the program classes will
be processed, while the library classes will remain unchanged.

Perhaps detox requires another proguard file?
----UPDATE----
Here is my build.gradle dependencies:

Not sure if the react native dependencies make a difference...
Perhaps there is a mismatch in versions?
