Would it be possible that the OTP memory is not properly initialized and
the algorithm to initialized the packet list to confuse the hardware?

I see in the datasheet the following: "The initial value of the OTP memory
is ‘0’ but the memory may contain some “defective” bits already set to the
value ‘1’."

Otherwise, from the top of my mind I don't have any idea on what might happen.

Thank you,
