There could be several reasons why the Android PendingIntent is failing to launch an activity when called from a notification after being in the background. Some possible reasons include:

  1. Activity Stack: Android uses a task and back stack for activities. If your app is not properly handling the task and back stack, the activity may not be launched correctly from the notification.

  2. Notification Priority: If the priority of the notification is set to low, it may not always launch the activity when tapped.

  3. Pending Intent Flags: If you are using PendingIntent flags such as FLAGCANCELCURRENT or FLAGUPDATECURRENT, this may cause the Pending Intent to be canceled or overwritten.

  4. Application State: If your application is set to "Do Not Keep Activities" or is not properly handling the activity lifecycle, the activity may not be launched correctly.

In order to solve this issue, you may need to review your activity stack, notification priority, Pending Intent Flags, and application state to ensure that they are properly configured. Additionally, you can try using a different PendingIntent flag or launching the activity directly from the notification to see if that resolves the issue.
