Thank @ptrendx. I created a fix in #16773

@hzfan @szha How can we test this fix without merging and waiting for the nightly tests?

[samskalicky]

@ptrendx #16773 is merged, can you cherry pick into 1.6?

[ptrendx]

Nightly tests did not run yet, are you sure it fixes the failures?

[ptrendx]

Fix merged to both master and 1.6, closing.
