R session hangs up after using ggplotly()

My R session (within RStudio) hangs up after using ggplotly().
For testing, I use one of the examples of ?ggplotly. The example normally works ok once or twice, but the R session hangs up after several tries (in the example below, the 2nd run hung up the session). I cannot even close RStudio from within the GUI and have to use the System Monitor application to kill it.
This problem arises when I run the following code after I have loaded a given project, not if I start a R session with no project. However, the project does not load any data or package, so I do not know how to identify the problem.
This is what I specifically do:

Beginne damit, das bereitgestellte ggplotly(viz, tooltip = c("text", "size"))-Beispiel in einem Projekt und in einer Sitzung ohne Projekt zu reproduzieren und dabei die angezeigte sessionInfo() sowie die geladenen Pakete zu dokumentieren. Vergleiche die beiden Umgebungen und verfolge den Einstiegspunkt von ggplotly(); als abgeschlossen gilt die Aufgabe, wenn der Hänger mit bestätigter Ursache reproduziert und eine Lösung verifiziert wurde.
