ARM Template Error: The condition specified using HTTP conditional header(s) is not met

Question

I am deploying an ARM template in which I enable the container soft delete feature.

The deployment fails intermittently with the following error:
{
"status": "Failed",
"error": {
"code": "ContainerOperationFailure",
"message": "The condition specified using HTTP conditional header(s) is not met.\nRequestId:7a49aa49-a01e-005d-620d-55e0a0000000\nTime:2022-04-20T23:20:58.4892716Z"
}
}

I have tried multiple apiVersions for the Microsoft.Storage/storageAccounts/blobServices resource, but the issue persists.
