'Can't use Geolocator inside Workmanager's task in Flutter

I am trying to use either Geolocator.getCurrentLocation or Geolocator.checkPermission() inside Workmanager's task. Both of those calls raise the same exception: MissingPluginException(No implementation found for method getCurrentPosition on channel flutter.baseflow.com/geolocator) - for getCurrentLocation.

And MissingPluginException(No implementation found for method checkPermission on channel flutter.baseflow.com/geolocator) for the checkPermission method.

Here is an example of the code

void callbackDispatcher() {
  Workmanager().executeTask((taskName, inputData) async {
    await Geolocator.checkPermission();
    await Geolocator.getCurrentPosition();
  });
}

There are few issues opened in GitHub repo of Geolocator, but there are no answers for them.

Any ideas on how I can solve this?

So, I found the solution for current problem. All I had to do is to replace the version of geolocator_android lib from ^3.1.6 with 3.1.5.

For some reason version 3.1.6 doesn't work as excepted.

geolocator: ^8.2.0
geolocator_android: 3.1.5
