WireGuard responses a Handshake Initiation packet with another Handshake Initiation instead of Handshake Response

I tried wg syncconf wg0 <(wg-quick strip wg0) without success.

Only restarting wireguard by systemctl restart wg-quick at wg0 makes it
respond with a Handshake Response packet.

This happens really rarely and especially on OpenWrt 19.07 as a client.

Other clients can handshake properly while the server fails to
complete the handshake for the OpenWrt device.

Packet Captures on boths sides are in the attachments.
