[Dysphagia] globus sensation only following sneezing

I saw a patient this week and would like some input.
He is a 37 yo male with the complaint of a lump in the left side of his throat when swallowing after he sneezes. This has been going on for the past 4 months. He states that the this feeling does not occur with swallowing solids or liquids and takes 30 minutes to cease. PMH is unremarkable. He quit smoking in January and saw an ENT who referred patient for an MBS. Laryngeal exam by ENT revealed normal findings. MBS results were normal (inlcuded esophageal screen with solid and liquid bolus). I even tried to bring about the globus sensation by trying to elicit sneezing (we had the patient sniff pepper). Any thoughts?
