Screen black and phone usable when placing or receiving a call.

• /e/ version: 1.10
• Device model(s): starlte
• Developer mode enabled: no
• Device rooted: no
• Trackers blocker enabled: yes

Summary

When placing a call or receiving a call the screen turns black. Only ending the call can give the user to use their phone again.

The problem

Steps to reproduce

1. update your starlte to /e/OS 1.10 or install it directly on /e/OS 1.10
2. wait few days or a couple of weeks
3. place a call or have someone calling you

What is the current behavior?

When receiving a call, if the screen is locked the user cannot pick-up the call as all the screen is black except the top bar (cf. screenshot) until the call ends.
When placing a call when the receiver don't answer user has to long press power + volume down button for it to reboot.

It happens at least with /e/OS Dialer and Signal.

What is the expected correct behavior?

The screen stays available and user can make any action they wish during a call.
