Jarring flickering from "can't find phone" to "select photo to unlock"

Project Member Reported by hansberry@chromium.org, Jan 14

Issue description

About 25% to 30% of time I've been using Smart Lock the past couple days, it takes a fair amount of time to communicate if the connection succeeded or not (~10 seconds?), then says "can't find phone". However, approximately 1 second later, it then displays the success text "select your photo to unlock".

The UX is jarring and weird. Needs investigation.

I suspect this bug is also artificially driving up our observed failures in the SmartLock.GetRemoteStatus.Unlock metric [1]. It only has a 13% success rate, with most failures caused by reason: "Timed out could not establish authenticated channel"

Smart Lock feels pretty broken with this issue. I'm going to start actively looking into it.
