NOTE: I couldn't find a ticket related to this after 30 minutes of searching and several search parameter adjustments.
Occasionally the inventory would glitch resulting in invisible items to be present or seemingly vanish completely. I have witnessed this on Xbox and Android versions in both personal and Realm worlds. This isn't easy to recreate, but does happen frequently. This mostly happens with stackable items (gravel is most famous for it) collected at any speed, but has affected Shulker Boxes and tools. Either two things can happen:
Item is literally gone until you leave and rejoin the world or realm but the space in your inventory is considered occupied and no other item can use it.
Items In a stack are visible, but you can't move the stack from the slot it's in until you either join and leave the world or realm, or you pickup another block that can join the glitched stack (in some cases, picking up more doesn't work).
You might be able to reproduce the stacked version of this glitch by using an efficiency 5 tool and haste. However, it can happen even without any buffs to speed. I will try getting a screen recording of this next time it happens.

Still happening in latest update:
i had this happen. the item still exists but it is only visible in the hotbar. it happens for every single item and was first present in a modified world but was successfully reproduced in an unmodded world
edit: i'm responsible for one of the dupes of this ticket btw
One work around I've found for this is using the 'pick block' button/key. That seems to refresh your inventory/hotbar and the invisible item reappears. You don't have to be 'picking' an item in your inventory, just use the 'pick block' button whilst looking at any block.
I've been having this issue frequently on my Realm on Nintendo Switch through the last few versions of the game (including 1.19.10)
I will highlight that this is still an issue and it also affects that if there is such a glitched item in your inventory, and the game tries to pick up other items, there is a chance that the item it attempted to pick up fails and ends up invisible in the world and floating around as an invisible entity. A large risk of losing shulkers of items this way.
This is marked as resolved, however this is not true, it's been happening for a number of title updates and still exists in 1.20. Having the exact same thing happen to me that Etanarvazac Revorix posted with their clip. It seems to randomly happen and while it will eventually fix itself (no idea how), it's incredibly annoying. Another thing to make note of. For me at this very instance, I have 63 blocks of dirt that are glitched. Whenever I pick up another dirt block, it will not add to be 64 but instead makes a new stack in my inventory.
This issue is NOT RESOLVED. I have it consistently, at least once a play session on a Bedrock Realm running and created in 1.20.6. I will add, which I haven't seen mentioned by others, that you can fix the issue by dropper picking the glitched stack to your hotbar if it's not already on there rather than relogging.
I will add that I believe every time the stack size has only been incorrect by one or two items each time, and twice out the hundred or so times it's happened, it was a shulker box that I wasn't picking up with any other items.
Here is a clip I recorded from my Xbox regarding this issue. This was on a Survival realm.
