Printer goes offline if it's not on the home screen when a file is submitted via connect

Bit of a fringe case, perhaps, but it's caused enough failed starts for me that I thought it worth bringing up.

 

If the XL display is on anything other than the home screen (e.g. I forget to exit out of all menus after doing a filament swap or parking a tool), the printer will freeze when I submit a job via prusa connect and display an 'offline' status. This has caused me to have to drive back into the office a couple of times to start an overnight print that I submitted from home.

When I return to the printer and exit all menus, it will *sometimes* begin the print. But it sometimes crashes and reboots instead.

I'm running FW version 6.0.3+14902. The printer is connected via Ethernet, and I'm submitting prints in .bgcode. This problem has persisted through at least two firmware upgrades, so it isn't unique to the current FW version.
