Why do I get "Warning: Cannot load an object of class 'listener':" when I open figure?

Why do I get the warning below when I open a MATLAB figure (.fig) ?

Warning: Cannot load an object of class 'listener':

The cause of the warning message is that while loading the object from the MAT-File, MATLAB was not able to attach the listener back to the object. This is caused by a bug from MATLAB Releases early than R2016a.

This   bug has been fixed since R2016b. The listener was saved to transient property on a figure rather than inside appdata. However, figures generated from an earlier release could still trigger these warning messages in all MATLAB Releases. But these warning messages should not affect the normal use of the loaded figure.
