Physics.Raycast not working on some objects

Raycasting in the editor finds all the objects in the scene with a collider. However, on the device, it only hits the cube object. The device’s camera is an AR camera, as you can see, while in the editor, I am using a regular camera. Do you have any idea why it doesn’t detect the spheres when it’s on the device? I am out of ideas regarding what I should check.

Here’s the code for casting rays:

if (overlay.activeSelf) return;
Ray ray = arCamera.ScreenPointToRay(arCamera.ViewportToScreenPoint(pointerViewportPosition));

RaycastHit hit;

bool raycastHit = Physics.Raycast(ray, out hit);
//ConsoleLog(raycastHit.ToString());

AddLineRender(ray);

if (raycastHit)
{
    ConsoleLog(hit.transform.name);

    activePoint = hit.transform.gameObject;
    if (activePoint == previousActivePoint)
    {
        return;
    }
    if (previousActivePoint != null && previousActivePoint != activePoint)
    {
        string pathName = previousActivePoint.transform.parent.name;
        Color pathColor = paths.Find(_ => _.name == pathName).color;
        previousActivePoint.GetComponent<Renderer>().material.SetColor("_Color", pathColor);
    }
    activePoint.GetComponent<Renderer>().material.SetColor("_Color", Color.red);
    activeLight.SetActive(true);
    activeLight.transform.position = activePoint.transform.position;
    nameLabel.transform.position = new Vector3(
        activePoint.transform.position.x,
        activePoint.transform.position.y + .05f,
        activePoint.transform.position.z - .05f
    );
    TextMeshPro tmp = nameLabel.GetComponentInChildren(typeof(TextMeshPro)) as TextMeshPro;
    tmp.text = activePoint.transform.parent?.name ?? "";
    nameLabel.transform.rotation = placement.rotation;
    nameLabel.transform.Rotate(0f, 180.0f, 0f);
    nameLabel.SetActive(true);
    Vector2 tb = tmp.GetPreferredValues(activePoint.transform.parent?.name);
    animationHeight = (tb.y + 2) * .015f;
    float dx = ((tb.x / 2) + 1) * .015f + .025f;
    float dy = animationHeight - 2;
    openingIndicator.transform.position = new Vector3(
        activePoint.transform.position.x - dx,
        activePoint.transform.position.y + .05f - dy,
        activePoint.transform.position.z - .05f
    );
    openingIndicator.transform.rotation = placement.rotation;
    openingIndicator.SetActive(true);
    isAnimating = true;
    previousActivePoint = activePoint;
    if (showOverlay != null)
    {
        StopCoroutine(showOverlay);
    }
    showOverlay = ShowOverlay(hit);
    StartCoroutine(showOverlay);
}
else
{
    activeLight.SetActive(false);
    if (previousActivePoint != null)
    {
        if (showOverlay != null)
        {
            StopCoroutine(showOverlay);
            showOverlay = null;
        }
        ResetAnimation();
        string pathName = previousActivePoint.transform.parent.name;
        Color pathColor = paths.Find(_ => _.name == pathName).color;
        previousActivePoint.GetComponent<Renderer>().material.SetColor("_Color", pathColor);
        previousActivePoint = null;
