Description

Hi All,
I noticed something very worrying:
Since yesterday there have been errors in Keybase application while browsing files from the application level.
I see the following error message:
"Failed to list folder: [folder name]. Retry."

Pressing the "Retry" helps, but when you enter a lower directory level, the problem reappears again.
After restarting the application, the problem disappears for some time, but unfortunately it appears after some time.

This problem first appeared when the computer was awakened from its sleep state.

Research direction

Start with log ID f58793882b586ee4bbdca11c and reproduce the failure by browsing nested folders after waking the computer from sleep. Check whether Retry and restarting the application only mask the issue; done means folder browsing remains reliable without the reported error.
