CC1310: RF_runCmd stuck awaiting for ACK

Tool/software:

i have a device with a cc1310 that transmits a signal to another device in 2 events. One event is when a car is detected, the other event is a timer that triggers every 7 seconds to alert the receiver device of its status. To transmit i use the function below in both events:

static bool rf_send(const uint8_t data, rf_cmd_t cmd, RF_t *ack_payload) {
    if (!device.is_joined && cmd != RF_CMD_JOIN) return false;

    memcpy(&tx_payload.dst_addr, filter_address, sizeof(tx_payload.dst_addr));
//    tx_payload.dst_addr = *(uint64_t *)filter_address;
    tx_payload.cmd = cmd;
    tx_payload.data.raw = data;


    // Send packet with listen before talk
#if ACK_MODE == true
    RF_EventMask terminationReason = RF_runCmd(rf_handle, (RF_Op*) &RF_cmdNop, RF_PriorityNormal,
            rf_tx_done_cb, (RF_EventCmdDone | RF_EventRxEntryDone | RF_EventLastCmdDone));
#else
    RF_EventMask terminationReason = RF_runCmd(rf_handle, (RF_Op*) &RF_cmdPropTx, RF_PriorityNormal, NULL, 0);
#endif

    // Command status
    uint32_t cmdStatus = ((volatile RF_Op*) &RF_cmdPropTx)->status;
    uint32_t cmdRXStatus = ((volatile RF_Op*) &RF_cmdPropRxAdv)->status;

    // Reset status
    RF_cmdNop.status = IDLE;
    RF_cmdPropCs.status = IDLE;
    RF_cmdCountBranch.status = IDLE;
    RF_cmdPropTx.status = IDLE;
    RF_cmdPropRxAdv.status = IDLE;
    RF_cmdCountBranch.counter = CS_RETRIES_WHEN_BUSY;

    // If command terminate OK
    if (cmdStatus == PROP_DONE_OK && cmdRXStatus == PROP_DONE_OK && terminationReason == RF_EventLastCmdDone) {
        // If packet is from the type ACK
        if (rx_payload.cmd != RF_CMD_ACK) {
            return false;
        }

        *ack_payload = rx_payload;

        return true;
    }

    return false;
}

When the function is called in the 7 seconds periodic event it runs with no errors, when it is called on a detection it gets stuck at the RF_runCmd, but it sends the signal. What can cause this behaviour?
