Reconnect functionality stops gps track

Sometimes the workout player on my garmin doesnt pick up my hr monitor.

I usually hit the reconnect feature and sensors connect fine after starting but noticed my past 2 rides have no track after the fact.

Previously the gps track would remain, now the track just stops at location i hit reconnect and workout continues.

What model Garmin device?
What brand/model HRM?
ANT+ or BLE connection?
Has everything worked fine in the past? If yes, has a Garmin firmware update recently been installed?
Are there any other Connect IQ apps installed that may be running in background?

EDGE 540
HRM Pro Plus
BLE connection to my phone - all sensors are ANT+

Yes everything has worked in the past, recently I’ve had some issues with the HRM not connecting once I go into the player so I have to stop the workout (go out of the player) wait for connection and then restart the workout player.

Recently the sensors reconnect (sometimes) but have noticed that at the end of the workout the gps track stops at point I hit reconnect.

No I have not updated the garmin recently, there are no other connect iq apps installed that could run in the background.
