I don’t know that there is a standard way to set up acf in a plugin other than what is posted.

But I would try adding the filters for the acf functions without them being in another filter first to see if that corrects the problem you’re seeing.

function my_acf_settings_path( $path )
{
    // update path
    $path = plugin_dir_path() . 'myplugin/vendors/advanced-custom-fields-pro/';
	    
    // return
    return $path;
}

function my_acf_settings_dir( $dir )
{	 
    // update path
    $dir = plugin_dir_path() . 'myplugin/vendors/advanced-custom-fields-pro/';
	    
    // return
    return $dir;
}
	// Include ACF.
	// 1. customize ACF path
	add_filter('acf/settings/path', 'my_acf_settings_path');
	
	// 2. customize ACF dir
	add_filter('acf/settings/dir', 'my_acf_settings_dir');
	
	// 3. Hide ACF field group menu item
	add_filter('acf/settings/show_admin', '__return_true');
	
	// 4. Include ACF
	include_once( plugin_dir_path() . 'myplugin/vendors/advanced-custom-fields-pro/acf.php' );
