[Bug]: addClickListener not working in IOS when app is in terminated state.

[preteambuy]

What happened?

Tapping on the message when the app is in killed state doesnt trigger addClickListener

Steps to reproduce?

1. Installed 5.3.4 Version
2. Initialize the code like below before the runApp 

static Future<void> initialize() async {
    final AppConfig appConfig = locator<AppConfig>();
    OneSignal.initialize(appConfig.oneSignalAppId);

    OneSignal.Notifications.addClickListener(_onNotificationOpened);
    OneSignal.Notifications.addForegroundWillDisplayListener(_onNotificationReceivedInForeground);
  }

3. The push notification handler works when the app is in the background or foreground.
4. When the app is in killed state, and when i tap on the message, the "_onNotificationOpened" function isnt trigggered.
5. This is on IOS platform

What did you expect to happen?

I expected the app to trigger the function on tapping the push notification.

OneSignal Flutter SDK version

5.3.4

Which platform(s) are affected?

• iOS
• Android

Hi @preteambuy, thanks for reaching out.

What is in your _onNotificationOpened function? How are you testing that the function is triggered? Print statements and logs are inconsistent when logging very early in the iOS app process. This is a known limitation of iOS logs.

thanks @nan-li . Am pushing the logs to sentry to test it out. This is the function code of _onNotificationOpened

static void _onNotificationOpened(OSNotificationClickEvent event) {
    final additionalData = event.notification.additionalData?.cast<String, Object>() ?? {};
    Sentry.captureMessage('On Notification Opened: ${additionalData.toString()}');
    PushNotificationRouter.handleTarget(additionalData);
}

Is this consistently reproducible for you?

[preteambuy]

Is this consistently reproducible for you?

Yes it consistent. If the app is killed and when a push notification comes and when i tap on it, it doesnt handle the deeplink. All it does is goes to the landing page

@preteambuy for me it actually crashes. I am using Firebase Auth and the notification triggers it to crash. No logs other than the following from TF.
