Reframe Getting Muted Mid-Sentence on a Call as a Technical Problem, Not a Slight

I was mid-sentence on a video call and got cut off, either muted, dropped, or talked over, [describe what actually happened], and my instinct was to read it as a slight even though it was probably nothing. Reframe what happened for me in under 100 words: give the most likely mundane explanation first, then one calm way to pick the point back up in the next message or meeting without sounding needy about it.
