Auto-scroll down does not work after modal run

I have a boostrap 5.1.3 modal with some content, if the content is biger of 100px for the modal, a scrollbar should appear and go down automatically. But this does not happen and only works after clicking the scroll down button. Does anyone know the solution to the problem?

refreshScroll();
const exampleModal = document.getElementById('exampleModal')
if(exampleModal){
  exampleModal.addEventListener('show.bs.modal',refreshScroll )
}   
var objDiv = document.getElementById("pmbox");
objDiv.scrollTop = objDiv.scrollHeight;
document.querySelector('#pmsend').addEventListener('click', function (e) {
  e.preventDefault();
  refreshScroll();
});
function refreshScroll(){
  var objDiv = document.getElementById("pmbox");
  if(objDiv)
  objDiv.scrollTop = objDiv.scrollHeight;
}

          <div class="bg-info" style="height: 200px;"> most scroll down auto </div>
        </div>
      </div>
      <div class="modal-footer">

You can use setTimeout() in order to give an extra time for the modal render to end, and then you can call refreshScroll()

    const pmbox = document.getElementById('pmbox')
if (exampleModal) {
   exampleModal.addEventListener('show.bs.modal', refreshScroll)
}

var objDiv = document.getElementById('pmbox')
objDiv.scrollTop = objDiv.scrollHeight
document.querySelector('#open').addEventListener('click', function (e) {
    e.preventDefault()
    setTimeout(() => {
        refreshScroll()
    }, 200);
})
document.querySelector('#pmsend').addEventListener('click', function (e) {
    e.preventDefault()
    refreshScroll()
})
function refreshScroll () {
    var objDiv = document.getElementById('pmbox')
    if (objDiv) objDiv.scrollTop = objDiv.scrollHeight
}
