If there are no codes and it just flashes the gear icon, it usually means it's waiting for the input shaft speed to slow down enough before it engages a gear, which tends to mean there is some mechanical issue with the clutch or inertia brake (if equipped).

I’ve got a ‘20 T680 that’ll randomly go into neutral at stop signs and lights. Tells me the trans needs serviced. I hit the 4-ways, turn off the ignition, and hope it’s cleared when I restart the truck. So far, I’ve gotten lucky and it works. And, other motorists haven’t shot me, yet. The good times of electronic transmissions.

DM clutch. Likely dragging with a broken spring and the inertia brake cannot overcome the drag. I agree, most likely clutch.
