Additional context

The same behavior for Symfonium, so part of the issue belongs to Tesla. But then DSub2000 does not behave like this, so I believe it is fixable without changing Tesla.

Currently I'm setting up Android dev environment trying to take a stab on this, but I'm no expert so want to reach out for help.
