If you need help to convert them back, here are the instructions: Go to the Exchange admin center. Select Recipients > Shared. Select the shared mailbox. Under Convert to Regular Mailbox, select Confirm.

Also have an explaination.
If you're user are managed on a local Exchange Server (even if Hybrid), and even if a MS365 licence is applied, the user is managed as a Contact and can only have Guest role because while not registred as a fully Cloud MS365 account it can't manage Booking account.

Benjamin_GL100% true we run into the same issue. Convert the mailbox from onprem to cloud now it works.
Thx and greets
