Something like: "PLAYER 1's roll gives them no valid moves. They are unable to progress this turn." And leave it up for a few extra seconds, just to make it clear what happened.
Could also make it a rule variant where you are allowed to re-roll if your first roll gives you no valid moves (a few of us, myself included, thought it worked that way until this situation came up for us).
After switching to the next player, the dice might show an impossible combination and instead of re-throwing the dice until a combination ist found dir the Player to play, it continues to the next Player having skipped one
If you actually go to move 127 and check, you can see it.
Claimed columns: 4,6,8,12
Roll: 2-2-4-6
Possible columns: 4,6,8,10
He should have been able to place on column 10.

There are no claimed columns, but it won't let me place on the 9, the 10, the 11, or the 12.
Bug.
Advance to turn 45 by using "Next visible change" twice.
Your tokens were on 4/6/8, so you can only play on those column.
You did 4/5/6/6, so can't do any of these 3 numbers, so your turn end.
No bug here. Same for the other game I checked more up.
I didn't have black turn tokens on any columns yet, and there ar eno claimed columns yet.

I replayed it while recording video.
BGA updates the turn number at the top left before it clears the roll.
The 2-2-4-6 is from Bardo Gaan's turn, but then updates the turn to #127, so you can grab a screenshot with mismatched values.
Then the roll updates to Arthur1er's 2-2-6-6 but everything else is unchanged, except a thin white line at the top of the log.
That's how you can get screenshots of Turn 127 with two different rolls.
So the issue is that the order of UI element updates results in simultaneous display of values from different players' turns at the same time, and it's extra confusing in the case where a player hits all clamed columns on their first roll, because there are two of these between turns states back-to-back.
The issue is with the order of the UI element updates when you're replaying using "Advanced replay features" "Next visible change".

It should blank everything out from the previous turn before updating with values from the new turn.

Move 33
Pour un autre joueur c’était impossible alors que c’était son premier lancer de dés …
Et du coup j’ai perdu alors que j’avais presque gagné !!! Merci les bugs !
Je n’ai pas le nº de table par contre…
my turn passed without having the opportunity to play - imgur.com/a/2D76pLE
it COULD be that I rolled a combination that had no legal moves BUT the game continued without me having time to notice this or interact in any way.
Move #106, I think.

===================================================================
THERE HASN'T BEEN ANY REAL BUG IN ANY OF THE GAMES MENTIONED HERE!
Please vote for display of the dice in the log here: boardgamearena.com/bug?id=12461
*** IMPORTANT ***
The real issue is that it happens so fast that the dice are never displayed as the game is being played!! If there is a way to make the interface pause for several seconds, or require confirmation at this point, that would help remove the confusion.
Mossa#127
The fact this has continued to occur "Randomly" since 2020 and upvoted means there is something wrong.
Move 168-173: game jumped my turn even though I clearly had still one piece off the board so I could definitely progress. It wasn't something I could fix and I think it costed me the game as I was getting to the top of one of the tracks.
