Bluetooth timeslot: sd_radio_request() takes a few ms which glitches an interrupt

My question is similar to https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/4272/sd_radio_request-performance-question

I am using the S140 softdevice and the Radio Driver ( github.com/.../nRF-IEEE-802.15.4-radio-driver.). Part of my application requires a interrupt every 1ms which I generate using TIMER2. I notice that when sd_radio_request() is called my interrupt pauses for a few ms. Flashing a LED over sd_radio_request shows that its during its execution time that the interrupt pauses.

The original question (about 4 years old) indicates an update is a solution to this but that is not applicable to the S140.

Is there a work around for this?

kind regards

Liam
