6. Friend leaves party as they are queued into a match
7. You now enter said match from the home menu automatically
8. Leave the lobby for that match
9. Match making is broken

Explanation

When queued for 2v8 with a friend as killer, pulling up the game's manual via the diminishing returns info button from the loadout menu and then switching to tutorials before leaving the menu causes queueing for games to break. You will be brought back to the main menu with the message that the you were disconnected from the party even though you actually haven't. Your friend will still be in queue with you and you will enter games as normal. If your friend leaves the party, you will be queued solo and if you leave the lobby when queued solo matchmaking will be broken. Neither you nor your friend can queue into a game of DBD until you close and restart your respective games.
