Matlab fails to run Python built with Pybind

Attempting to call a member of a user-defined Python module which was built using Pybind. The module seems to import correctly via
mymodule = py.importlib.import_module("mymodule")
But on attempting to access a class from the module, I get this error:
>> myclass = mymodule.myclass
Cannot find class 'py.pybind11_builtins.pybind11_type'.
I've tested that the module loads and works correctly when accessed in Python. I'm using Matlab on Ubuntu, and Python 3.10

Are you able to import and use functions in python modules from MATLAB ?
This issue could be related to using custom C++ datatypes with pybind11 and currently may be a limitation for Python Interface.
For the record, this has also been reported on pybind11 issue tracker back in May 2022: https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/issues/3945 (where pybind11 maintainers suggested to report it to Matlab maintainers).
It's a big showstopper as there are more and more Python packages built using pybind11.
Update: a workaround has just been proposed and succesfully tested here: https://github.com/pybind/cmake_example/pull/164
This is the work-around for that error that worked for me on Windows:
Create a file called 'pybind11_builtins.py' and place it in the folder where your python modules library resides. (For my Python 3.10 installation in Windows, it was {Path to Python Installation} \Lib folder.
The only line in that file should be 'pybind11_type=type' (without the apostrophes).
Reload your pyenv in Matlab,
>>py.importlib.import_module('pybind11_builtins')
>>py.importlib.import_module(' Your originally intended module here')
