SPI master problem

Hi,

I am using nrf52833 EVB as an SPI master. The data is sent properly and well-received at the slave, however, I have a problem with the data received.

The problem is that every second transaction I get the wrong data. For example if the slave is sending a growing counter the data received will look like this:

0, 128, 2, 128, 4, 0, 128 .......

    APP_ERROR_CHECK(nrf_drv_spi_init(&spi, &spi_config, spi_event_handler, NULL));
    NRF_LOG_INFO("SPI example started.");

    while (1)
    {
        m_tx_buf[0] = commands[counter%sizeof(commands)];
        counter = 1 - counter;
        // Reset rx buffer and transfer done flag
        memset(m_rx_buf, 0, m_length);
        spi_xfer_done = false;
        NRF_LOG_INFO("\n");
        NRF_LOG_INFO("sending %d bytes %d" , m_length, m_tx_buf[0]);
        NRF_LOG_INFO("rec buffer %d bytes %d" , m_length, m_rx_buf[0]);
        APP_ERROR_CHECK(nrf_drv_spi_transfer(&spi, m_tx_buf, 1, m_rx_buf, 1));
        NRF_LOG_INFO("2\n");
        while (!spi_xfer_done)
        {
            __WFE();
        }
        NRF_LOG_FLUSH();
        bsp_board_led_invert(BSP_BOARD_LED_0);
        nrf_delay_ms(3000);
    }
}

Can anyone explain

I don't experience this problem when using RPI as SPI master with the same slave.

Anyone?
