OData v8.0.11 with Automapper causes IEntityQueryable to IQueryable error

I recently upgraded my .net project from .netcore3.1 to .net6 while also updating OData with its latest version (v8.0.11). The following code runs fine and returns correct OData response (context and value) and even the query filters work as expected.

[HttpGet]
[EnableQuery]
public IActionResult Get()
{
   var persons = _db.Persons.AsQueryable();
   return Ok(persons);
}

But when I try to convert this to PersonsDTO, it fails with error:

[HttpGet]
[EnableQuery]
public IActionResult Get()
{
    var persons = _db.Persons.AsQueryable();
    var response = persons.ProjectTo<PersonDTO>(_mapper.ConfigurationProvider);
    return Ok(response);
}

ArgumentException: Object of type 'Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Query.Internal.EntityQueryable`1[ODataTest.Model.PersonDTO]' cannot be converted to type 'System.Linq.IQueryable`1[ODataTest.Model.Person]'.

Before I upgraded this .net and Odata it worked without issues but currently it throws the mentioned exception.

Here's my automapper configuration:

public PersonMapping()
{
    CreateMap<Person, PersonDTO>()
        .ForMember(dest => dest.PersonName,
            opt => opt.MapFrom(
                src => src.Name
            ));
}

and EDM Model:

IEdmModel GetEdmModel(){
    var builder = new ODataConventionModelBuilder();
    builder.EnableLowerCamelCase();

    builder.EntitySet<Person>("Persons"); 

    return builder.GetEdmModel();
}
