Research direction
Start with the linked StackBlitz reproduction and inspect the interaction between cdk-virtual-scroll-viewport[scrollWindow] and mat-dialog after scrolling to the 100th line. Reproduce the empty viewport and scroll restoration to 0, then verify that opening and closing the dialog leaves the virtual scroll populated at its original position.
