Remote wiping when Mailbox screen asleep => Wiping Complete screen presents twice

Steps to reproduce

Briar device: Samsung A01S Core, Android 10 Mailbox device: Motorola E2, Android 6 do not keep activities = On for both devices, but results are the same iwth do not keep activities = OFF on mailbox

  • when Briar and Mailbox are connected, wait for the Mailbox device screen to be askeep (ie to turn black)
  • then tap Unlink on Briar side
  • When the process finishes, and the Briar settings screen presents again, tap the Mailbox device screen to activate it

Expected results:

  • Wiping complete screen presents on mailbox device.
  • On taping the Finish button, the mailbox exits.

Actual results

  • Wiping complete screen does present, but when the user taps the Finish button, instead of the mailbox app exiting, the same screen presents again, via a couple of other briefly visible screens. See video attached.
  • The video screen is black initially because I started recording via Android Studio when I tapped Unlink on the Briar screen. The mailbox device screen was asleep at that time, and when the wiping finishes on Briar side, I tap the mailbox device to reactivate that screen...
