Which @angular/* package(s) are the source of the bug?

forms

Is this a regression?

No

Description

Hello,
i am aware of at least these two related issues:
#41519, #13200, but was not able to reopen either of them, so - sorry for the duplicate report.

I have a reactive form defined with a single text field. It has both a required validator, and a simple asynchronous validator. The field is initialized in the class constructor by calling form.patchValue() - see the reproduction link. As a result, the form enters PENDING state, a statusChanges value is emitted, and also a StatusChangeEvent. However, as soon as the asynchronous validator completes, there is no statusChanges value emitted, neither a StatusChangeEvent.

What was expected:
having a look at #41519 (comment), i think it is probably not expected that a VALID statusChanges value is emitted. However, it is expected that a StatusChangeEvent is emitted.

What happened:
Neither a VALID statusChanges value was emitted, nor a VALID StatusChangeEvent.

Please provide a link to a minimal reproduction of the bug

Please provide the exception or error you saw

as mentioned above - there is no error occurring, but the behavior is different than expected

Please provide the environment you discovered this bug in (run ng version)
