I have a pretty basic usage of ref.listen(). I want to show a bottomSheet once the value of my provider changes.

ref.listen<MyObject?>(myObjectProvider, (previous, next) {
  debugPrint("showBottomSheet: ${previous == next}");
});

The following is printed:

showBottomSheet: false

showBottomSheet: true

showBottomSheet: true

showBottomSheet: true

The initial value is null that is why we get the first false.
My understanding is that next has to be different from previous for the listener to be called.
