Plot_ly sunburst restyle event puts sunburst in weird state

I have a large sunburst it is laid out with three levels. I have implemented click events to synchronize other tables and charts as a user navigates the sunburst.

I am trying to implement a search box that takes the user directly to a node in the sunburst. I am using plotlyProxy and send the restyle

gotothis<-sbd %>% filter(labels==input$sunburstquery) %>% pull(ids)
sunburstproxy %>% plotlyProxyInvoke("restyle", list(level=gotothis))

In this case gotothis would be the id of the table that the sunburst was created from. In most cases this works in the desired method. If I restyle to one of the levels in the middle it draws the sunburst as if I had just clicked on that node. However, when the level is a leaf. It draws a single circle with that leaf in it no parents.

Which is fine I suppose, however when I try to navigate to the parent by clicking the circle as if it were the center circle, then it doesn't rerender the parent, though the click event is registered. To reiterate this works as expected when I restyle the level to the parent level. There doesn't appear to be anyway to rescue the state of the plotly sunburst after it is restyled to a leaf node.

Start with the plotlyProxyInvoke("restyle", ...) call in the issue and reproduce navigation after restyling a three-level sunburst to a leaf id. Trace the leaf-node state and click handling; done when clicking the leaf view can navigate back to its parent and rerender it correctly.
