RequestManager/SockerProvider never resolves Web3Deferred Promise when using IPC Provider

[fipso]

Steps to reproduce the behavior

const { Web3 } = require("web3");
const { IpcProvider } = require("web3-providers-ipc");

async function main2() {
  const ipcProvider = new IpcProvider("/tmp/sockets/rpc_proxy.sock", {}, {});
  const web3 = new Web3(ipcProvider);

  const latest = await web3.eth.getBlockNumber();
  console.log(latest);
}
main2();

I debugged my way to the SocketProvider's send function. For some reason, when I place a breakpoint at the end of the function return deferredPromise; line 494, wait for like 2 seconds, then i continue execution and suddenly it works and the promise resolves with the right number.

Environment

Fedora 40, Node v20.17,
"web3": "^4.13.0",
"web3-providers-ipc": "^4.0.7"
