selectedpoints for curvenumber > 0 invisible when using scattergl #2482

Description

I'm not sure if this is an issue with the R library (latest CRAN version 4.12.0) or plotly.js however, when setting selectedpoints on a scattergl trace for curvenumbers > 0, the points turn invisible - for curvenumber 0 it works as it should. If you look closely, you can see that the points were faded out before they are selected and when selected they disappear.

Using a scatter trace instead everything works as expected.

  x = rep(1:10, 3),
  y = c(
    seq(1, 5, length.out = 10),
    seq(1, 7, length.out = 10),
    seq(1, 10, length.out = 10)
  ),
  grp = rep(LETTERS[1:3], each = 10)
)

  plotlyOutput("my_plot"),

  my_plot_proxy <- plotlyProxy(
    outputId = "my_plot"

    plotlyProxyInvoke(my_plot_proxy, "restyle", list(selectedpoints = -1)) # deselect all points for all traces
    plotlyProxyInvoke(my_plot_proxy, "restyle", list(selectedpoints = list(I(input$point_number))), input$curve_number)

    plot_ly(data = DF, type = input$plot_type, mode = "lines+markers", x = ~x, y = ~y, name = ~grp)
  })
}
