Unable to Remove Deleted File from Shared With Me

We ran into a scenario where Person-A shared a OneDrive for Business document with Person-B.  Person-A then deleted the document and emptied their recycle bin.  Person-B could still see the document listed under "Shared with me" via their own OneDrive, however they cannot remove that document from "Shared with me."  Selecting the document from within "Shared with me" and clicking on "Remove from shared list", results in an error stating "Sorry, we weren't able to remove this item from your view."

 

Has anyone else experienced this?  It seems that we could eventually end up with many orphaned links in users' "Shared with me" lists.
