Tabs on TabbedPage gone after popping Modal in background

[VoldersS]

Description

Seen on Android:

When popping a Modal that's displayed over a TabbedPage and sending the app to the background, when resuming the app the tabs are gone.

I've simulated some task before popping the modal. If you send the app to the background during this 2.5s, and resume it when the Modal is actually popped, the tabs on the TabbedPage are no longer displayed.

Summary: navigating in the background results in invisible tabs on TabbedPage

Steps to Reproduce

1. Create a MAUI project with a TabbedPage as MainPage and 2 Tabs

2. Push a third Page from one of the tab pages
   await Navigation.PushModalAsync(new ModalPage());

3. Pop the modal on button click in the modal

await Task.Delay(2500);
await Navigation.PopModalAsync();

When backgrounding the app during that 2500 ms Task, and resuming it after, the tabs on the TabbedPage are no longer visible.

Actual result: Tabs are gone

Bad.mp4

Expected result: Tabs are still visible
This is the current behaviour when using a Shell TabBar instead of the TabbedPage

Good.mp4

Did you find any workaround?

Works correctly using Shell, but since it's not supported while also using NavigationPages it's not really a workaround if you need NavigationPages.
