How to reload a lightningchart?

Question

Trying to reload a lightningchart by simply calling the following twice (simplified to be concise)

//'viz' points to an existing element in the DOM where the chart is bound to
lightningChart().ChartXY({container: 'viz' })

The first time around the chart renders fine. The second time, I'm getting a WebGL error:

WebGL: INVALID_OPERATION: bindBuffer: object does not belong to this context

This is likely caused by a WebGL context that is not freed between invocations. Problem is how to reset the chart (and thus the canvas and/or WebGL context) before rendering the chart again? I tried chart.dispose() but this doesn't seem to work

Any pointers?
