Description
Describe the bug
Performing Send Transactions with a Smart Account in Monad Testnet always fails with the error reserve balance violation.
The gas is displayed as Unavailable.
However, if I downgrade the account to EOA then the Send succeeds normally
Expected behavior
Transactions with Smart Accounts should also succeed

Research direction
Reproduce the failure in the live 13.27.0 Chrome build on Monad Testnet by following the listed Smart Account upgrade and Send steps. Start at the Send transaction flow and compare Smart Account behavior with the successful EOA case; done means the transaction succeeds and gas is no longer shown as Unavailable.
