NRF52840 ble_App_uart_c example hangs in first start and debug mode (SDK 17.1.0)

[Yogeshwaran]

I am using ble_app_uart_c example to scan nrf beacons. Facing strange issue with debugger.

Enabled RTT and disable UART Logs, when i connect debugger and put break point after ble_stack_init() call then debugger get struck at SVCALL(SD_SOFTDEVICE_ENABLE, uint32_t, sd_softdevice_enable(nrf_clock_lf_cfg_t const * p_clock_lf_cfg, nrf_fault_handler_t fault_handler));

But if disconnect debugger and do hard reset things are fine. 

What could be the reason behind this issue?

[Yogeshwaran]

Actually SVCALL is returning NRF_INVALID_STATE error.

It means that the soft device initialized already is it so?

But again if do hard reset device works fine.

Yes, it likely does. Please check your code to see where you could be initializing this earlier.
