This is a relatively new problem and one I have tried to research with no meaningful results. Quite often now, my M2P will mis-read the altitude and refuse to descend. Although it is more common when I launch at a specific elevation and attempt to descend below the elevation at take-off such as into a canyon or river bed, it has now begun to misbehave regardless of where I launch from.
I have calibrated vision sensors in DJI Assistant 2, Performed a compass calibration and and IMU recalibration. I typically wait a little while after gps home point is locked in prior to launch as wel.
On this most recent flight, I was illuminating a house roof with Lume Cube mounts on the aircraft at night. The aircraft seemed to behave normally until I attempted to descend. I have to initiate auto landing to get the drone to drop altitude and then cancel once it is where I need it to be. If it fails to descend on auto-land, then I will attempt to drop altitude while flying forward at speed. Sometimes this has worked.
I will also disable obstacle avoidance in the event that the low light is creating an issue, however this problem has also occurred many times in full daylight. An email to DJI Technical Assistance was met with crickets chirping, so....
If anyone else has experienced this issue, I would love to know and hear your thoughts and solutions.

Thanks!
