iPhone 11 - Proximity Sensor after lock and unlock (17.1.1)

When I unlock phone and call somebody and then touch on proximity censor or place the phone to my ear, screen goes black normally but won't turn on & screen remain black. I can't press end call. But if I DON'T LOCK the phone and call people again everything works great, like no delay, no problems with proximity sensor. But.. when I lock phone, unlock again and call, same problem. Proximity Sensor does not work or delay is like 3-5 sec. Yes, I have full screen protector but proximity sensor works great if I don't lock the phone before calling somebody.

iPhone 11, iOS 17

I am not clear how the lock and unlock feature can affect Proximity Sensors.
