It looks to me the remote device lose the bonding. Are you sure it was
not power cycled (i.e. the battery removed or device was reset some
way)?

IIRC this should be the STK used for encryption right after "just
works" pairing. See Figure 5.5 from page 2005 of Core spec. It will
not match the LTK used for encryption after re-connection.
