[Flutter] Why isn't bloc builder recognizing the state change? If I wrap emit in a...

I'm working on a flutter project and all of a sudden, the bloc builder I was using stopped recognizing a specific state change. Here is an example of the code

class ProfileBloc extends HydratedBloc<ProfileEvent, ProfileState>
...

on<ProfileSelected>(_mapProfileSelectedToState);

...

FutureOr<void> _mapProfileSelectedToState(
ProfileSelected event, Emitter<ProfileState> emit) async {
emit(state.copyWith(
profileSelectionStatus: ProfileSelectionStatus.selecting,
));

setHeaders();
setRedirect();

emit(state.copyWith(
selectedProfile: event.selectedProfile
profileSelectionStatus: ProfileSelectionStatus.selected,
));
}


...

BlocBuilder<ProfileBloc,ProfileState>(builder: (context, profileState) {

return profileState.profileSelectionStatus == ProfileSelectionStatus.selected ? Text("Profile Selected") : Text("Profile Not Selected");
}

...


when the BlocBuilder runs, it never registers the ProfileSelectionStatus.selected state. It always returns Profile Not Selected. That is until I refresh the browser, then it reports as Profile Selected. If I wrap the second emit(the profileSelected one) in the bloc in a Future.delayed(Duration.zero,()=>emit...), then the bloc builder works as expected returning Profile Selected after it's emitted.

The thing is, it worked for a long time, then without changing those two blocs of code, it stopped working. Any ideas on what's wrong?
