We have been experiencing an issue causing us pain for the last few months.
The issue appears to be that occasionally when we request a pod via the Kubernetes executor it fails to create.
For example, a spark pod may fail with the following error:

Looking at the logs we see "SyncLoop" from kubelet requsting a new pod.

There are also some logs that indicate that volumes are mounted...

We see a pod Sandbox going to be created:

We don't seem to see anything else until we see this logged:

We thought that may be a CNI error, however we reviewed the Azure CNI logs and it doesn't appear to even get to the part where it starts to request an IP, only showing an error that the DEL command completed with err.

I am kind of out of ideas as to what we can even do to troubleshoot this further, as we're unable to even re-create this issue.
I understand that this "Context deadline exceeded" alert is a generic gRPC timeout, but I'm not sure which gRPC transaction is getting hung up on.
