Thanks toralf. I think I've previously seen this before on occasion. Does this happen consistently or is it sporadic? If the later I likely should introduce retries on our end.

Closing this since it's been quite a while without any further reports. If this comes up again (hopefully with a repro I can use) feel free to reopen.
