### [REQUIRED] Step 2: Describe your environment
* Android Studio version: N/A
* Firebase Component: Database
* Component version: 20.3.1 (BoM: 32.7.4)
### [REQUIRED] Step 3: Describe the problem
Code:
val ref = database
.getReference("timeline/240306/stations")
.orderByChild("tripName")
.equalTo(tripNameDouble)
ref.get()
.addOnSuccessListener{...}
.addOnFailureListener{...}
.addOnCanceledListener{...}
When executing this code **while offline** when never having executed this query/accessed this path before (so without any info for it in the cache), I expect the failure listener to be invoked, after the call to the server times out. Instead none of the callbacks is ever invoked, which means developers have to work around this condition with their own timeout mechanism.
