Using one eSIM and one SIM card - line show No Signal

I have one eSIM which line I leave ON, and one physical SIM card which line I leave OFF under Celluar settings. Occasionally the line which is OFF shows like it’s ON on the signal strength bars in the upper right hand corner (ie split dual bars). When I drag upper right corner down it shows both Celluar lines on with the secondary having NO SIGNAL. I then open cellular settings and secondary line is still OFF. I have to cycle it ON/OFF to get rid of splits bars again. This seemed have started with the latest iOS update. (I’ve had this Celluar dual line configuration for couple of years now). FYI when cycle the line off, I seem to get backed iMessages thru. Maybe it’s iMessage related ?
