Does the sliding door go into sleep mode after a few days parked up in camping mode? Though it’s unlocked it won’t open till I open the driver’s door

Hi all, I have noticed of late that the sliding door on my T6.1 Ocean often won’t open after a few days of it being idle (and on EHU and in camping mode) even though it’s UNLOCKED, and I was wondering if it goes into sleep mode or something similar? It’s no big deal, and I have found that the “workaround” is simply to open the driver’s door, which seems to re-awaken the vehicle, whereupon the sliding door opens when I pull the handle. I only know this because I regularly put it on EHU in my garage for a week or so at regular intervals, I never lock it as it’s inside, but I put it in camping mode so that all the damn lights won’t fire up if I need to go into it for some reason. Has anyone noticed the same thing, and/or is this normal?
