```c#
var bs = new BehaviorSubject(null);
var test = bs.Select(_ => 1).ToTask():
```
#### Workaround
A modern, simple and readable version of ToTask could be this one (tested ok).
await is required to prevent the dispose from being disposed too early or too late. And make the code simpler to read.
```c#
static async Task ToTask2(IObservable o)
{
var tcs = new TaskCompletionSource();
using var d = o
.Catch((Exception e) =>
{
tcs.TrySetException(e);
return Observable.Return(default!);
})
.Subscribe(v => tcs.TrySetResult(v));
return await tcs.Task.ConfigureAwait(false);
}
```
