Persistent notification sometimes does not clear

🐞 Bug Report

Reproduction steps

Can consistently reproduce by:

  1. Open app
  2. Bootstrap
  3. Open tab/website
  4. Background app
  5. Wait for "Close private tabs" notification to appear
  6. Wait roughly 5 additional seconds
  7. Close app by swiping it away from the recent items screen
  8. Notice the notification goes away for about a second, but then comes back
  9. At this point the notification is in a sort of zombie state where no matter how many times you swipe it away, it will stick around until the app crashes or is force stopped.
