Environment

• Minecraft: 1.21.8
• Fabric Loader: 0.18.1
• Fabric API: 0.136.1+1.21.8
• Mods: Visible Barriers 2.0.24, Sodium 0.7.3+mc1.21.8

Description

When Visible Barriers and Sodium are both installed, the south-facing surface of block_display and item_frame entities will randomly become transparent on each game launch.

The issue does not occur when using Visible Barriers alone.

using 1.21.10, I get a similar issue; however, the disappearing faces seem to be constant

I think applying resourcepacks pushes the mod further from doing this to the point where it gets impossible for this NOT to occur.

(also happens to 1.21.11)
