Describe the bug

Listbox component the selection binding is not working in "primeng": "16.7.2",

Hi have the folwing template:

<div class="card flex justify-content-center">
  <p-listbox
    [options]="virtualItems"
    [ngModel]="selectedItems"
    [style]="{ width: '15rem' }"
    [multiple]="true"
    [checkbox]="true"
    [showToggleAll]="false"
    [listStyle]="{'max-height': '220px'}"
    (onChange)="onListSelect($event)"
  ></p-listbox>
</div>
<div><button (click)="onSelect()">select</button></div>

and the ts:

import { Component, OnInit } from '@angular/core';

@Component({
  selector: 'listbox-virtual-scroll-demo',
  templateUrl: './listbox-virtual-scroll-demo.html',
})
export class ListboxVirtualScrollDemo implements OnInit {
  virtualItems!: any[];

  selectedItems = [];

  ngOnInit() {
    this.virtualItems = [];
    for (let i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
      this.virtualItems.push('Item ' + i);
    }
  }

  public onSelect() {
    this.selectedItems = [this.virtualItems[1]];
    console.log(this.selectedItems);
  }

  public onListSelect(e) {
    this.selectedItems = e.value;
