.NET Video Upload Exception

We are using the .NET Cloudinary.Core 1.31.0 package inside of a Xamarin.Droid project and consistently get the following exception on some devices:

"Error while copying content to a stream."

at System.Net.Http.HttpContent.CopyToAsyncCore (System.Threading.Tasks.ValueTask copyTask)

when running the following code that uploads a video asynchronously:

       public async Task<string> UploadVideo(byte[] data)
       {
            VideoUploadResult uploadResult = null;
            try
            {
                Stream stream = new MemoryStream(data);
                if (stream != null && stream.Length > 0)
                {
                    var uploadParams = new VideoUploadParams()
                    {
                        File = new FileDescription(GetVideoGuid, stream),
                        PublicId = GetVideoGuid,
                    };
                    uploadResult = await _cloudinary.UploadAsync(uploadParams);
                }
            }
            catch (Exception ex)
            {
                
            }
            return (uploadResult != null && uploadResult.PublicId !=null) ? uploadResult.PublicId.ToString() : null;
        }

Our upload test case seems to work with many devices, however, some devices consistently fail this test case with the above exception.

We have initialized _cloudinary by only specifying our account info (attempting to use all default values).

_cloudinary = new Cloudinary(account);
