LED blink issue in standby - LEDs freezing? #967

Not sure if this is unique to my unit or not, but I think there may be an intermittent firmware bug. You know how the LEDs briefly blink green (or the corresponding battery level) in standby? Ever since I bought it, years ago now, the LED will occasionally turn on at full power with no PWM (all my colors are normally PWM'd for color accuracy reasons) for a good 2-3 seconds. Nothing else happens - the Pi stays off. I've kinda been sitting on this since I figured it might get addressed by a fix at some point, and I remember the LED code being pretty deeply tied to some sort of massive pseudo-time-sharing loop, but I've updated the firmware a few times since and you're now using an RTOS, so I figured I'd submit this since it's weird that it still happens.

I'm currently running the latest firmware (1.6) from your compiled .deb file (the 1.8 variant) on genuine Raspberry Pi OS.
