Call history restored in Contacts but not in Phone app (Xperia)

I successfully restored a backup from my Jolla phone (2.1.2.3) to my Xperia X (2.1.3.5). Contacts, accounts, gallery, messages worked out alright.

The only strange thing is that no call history was restored to the Phone app, although call history was restored to Contacts as latest numbers used. I can also see the more detailed conversation history when opening a certain contact. But call history in the Phone app is empty.

For the record, I don't have a SIM card installed yet, as I need to get a nano-size card. I don't know if this could have some impact on the behaviour.

This is not a big problem for me, but it would be interesting to know the reason and perhaps it is useful information for coming updates.

As the call history seems to be available in the system, how can I make it visible in the Phone app?

Update

I made a backup from the Xperia and compared the contents with the backup file from Jolla 1. The \Phone\blobs\ directory in both backup .tar files have the same commhistory-tool_calls.dump file, which both seem to be the same size. It seems to contain familiar phone number data also, so it looks like the call history is there, but my Xperia does not show anything in the Phone app.
