Description

### Steps to reproduce

1. Start a DM with someone who isn't going to join the room right away
2. Send them a message
3. Close the browser tab
4. Some time later open Element again
5. See this message:

6. Click on the DM in the left panel (ether breadcrumb or DM list), see this infinispinner:

Clearing cache resolved the issue (the infinispinner stayed up for a long time).
