Description
Describe the bug
If you change a existing contact in NC the changes will not displayed on synced devices. New contacts are synced. From devices to NC is also not an issue. I don't know why.
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- Go to Contacts App
- Select a contact
- Change it
- Save notifcation appears (double checked few times that its saved)
- Syncing on devices
Expected behavior
Edited contacts should be synced (updated) from NC also.
Actual behavior
No change is happening

Research direction
No source files or tests are identified in the report. Start by reproducing the edit flow in Contacts 4.0.3 on Nextcloud 22, then compare the server-side and DAVx sync behavior using the requested Nextcloud, web-server, browser, and network logs. Done means edited contact fields are reflected on synced devices while new-contact and device-to-Nextcloud sync continue to work.
