I liken this situation to A1 strattling the line, passing to A2 (who is in the frontcourt; ball is now in the frontcourt) and then receiving a return pass while still straddling the line. That would, IMO, constitute an obvious violation.
It's the same play.

When the ball is passed to the teammate, it attains FC status.

When the ball is fumbled to the floor, it attains FC status.

In both cases, when the player who is straddling the division line again, it's a violation.
