VUID-VkDescriptorImageInfo-imageLayout-00344 false positive

Environment:

OS: Windows 11
GPU and driver version: AMD Radeon RX 6950 XT, 2.0.299
SDK or header version if building from repo: 1.3.290.0
Options enabled (synchronization, best practices, etc.): Image Layout

Describe the Issue

Here I have two dispatches separated by an image barrier: The barrier looks like this:

The first dispatch writes to mip 1, the barrier transitions it from VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_GENERAL to VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_SHADER_READ_ONLY_OPTIMAL, and the second dispatch reads from mip 1.

Both shaders access the mips like this:

layout(set = 0, binding = 25) uniform texture2D framebufferTextureMips[];
layout(set = 0, binding = 26, rgba16f) uniform image2D framebufferImageMips[];

Both arrays are backed by the same array of image views, each pointing to a single mip. The texture descriptors are updated with VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_SHADER_READ_ONLY_OPTIMAL and the image ones with VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_GENERAL.

Afaik, my usage here is correct, but at the second dispatch call I get a validation error, saying that the layout of mip 1 is still VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_GENERAL despite the barrier before the call.

Expected behavior

No validation error.
