Weird, looks like it's an actual kernel bug. It's out of scope for Howdy but thanks for reporting, hope you can find help elsewhere or a kernel update fix

I tried again today.
howdy is already the newest version (2.6.0).
Linux 5.6.14-050614-generic #202005200733

Works great, no errors.

If anyone met this problem, reboot is the best solution.
