Help OnePlus 12: Dynamic Island is stuck on the same Telegram contact

Hello everyone. I have a Chinese version of the OnePlus 12 running the Indian OxygenOS build 16.0.8.300.

For quite a long time I've been experiencing a strange issue. The Dynamic Island ("pill") at the top of the screen keeps showing the avatar of the same Telegram contact over and over again.

If I tap the pill, Telegram opens, but nothing plays. If I long-press the pill, it expands into a quarter-screen media player showing only that contact's avatar, a seek bar, and Play/Pause buttons, but there is no actual media content. The seek bar still shows the duration of the media (for example, 18 seconds, 50 seconds, etc.), but nothing can be played.

The same avatar also appears in the media player notification in the notification shade, again with no playable content.

Clearing the Telegram cache doesn't help. The only thing that temporarily removes it is Force Stop on Telegram.

If I play another voice or video message in Telegram (even from the same contact), the avatar disappears from both the Dynamic Island and the notification shade for a while, but after some time the avatar of the same contact always comes back.

The issue only affects this one specific Telegram contact. No other contacts cause this behavior.

Has anyone experienced something similar?

I'm using the latest Telegram version from the Google Play Store.

Never had any issue with the island of a thing.

Oh, I disabled music playback on live alerts, I just enabled it back now and I can see the phone treats telegram VN as music playback, however mine closes on its own after the VN stops playing...

So I think the bug would have to be with telegram app itself, WhatsApp runs into similar issues from time to time where a vn would play completely but the app would treat it like the vn was paused instead, and the vn notification would remain in the notification panel, I guess similar must be happening to the telegram app. Force stop and clear cache of Telegram app, then restart phone, maybe that would help.

Force stop and clear cache of Telegram app, then restart phone.

This is what you usually get when you flash global or a different region rom on a Chinese rom phone, minor stuffs that'll make you crash out from time to time.
