Context.startForegroundService() did not then call Service.startForeground()

[leaf-node]

Describe the bug Except for this one time, my app, which uses this package, runs fine without this error. However I ran into this crash that occurred maybe 1/2 to 2 minutes after starting the app.

To Reproduce

1. (Likely) use custom app settings to disable sticky notifications within app
2. Launch the otherwise mostly / usually working app in Android SDK 35 x86 emulator
3. Random crash after a short while
4. Relaunch app, without changing anything obviously related to notifications
5. No crash

Exited.

Expected behavior The expectation was for the app to not crash this one time.

Sample code to reproduce the problem

    // run from background isolate
    await notifier.initializeAlertNotifications();
    await notifier.startAnroidStickyNotification();

  // ...

  Future<void> initializeAlertNotifications() async {
    if (Platform.isLinux) {
      var initializationSettingsLinux =
          const LinuxInitializationSettings(defaultActionName: "Launch app");
      var initializationSettings =
          InitializationSettings(linux: initializationSettingsLinux);
      await _flutterLocalNotificationsPlugin.initialize(initializationSettings);
    } else if (Platform.isAndroid) {
      const AndroidNotificationChannel stickyChannel =
          AndroidNotificationChannel(
              stickyNotificationChannelId, stickyNotificationChannelName,
              description: stickyNotificationChannelDescription,
              importance: Importance.low);
      const AndroidNotificationChannel alertChannel =
          AndroidNotificationChannel(
              alertsNotificationChannelId, alertsNotificationChannelName,
              description: alertsNotificationChannelDescription,
              importance: Importance.max);
      await _flutterLocalNotificationsPlugin
          .resolvePlatformSpecificImplementation<
              AndroidFlutterLocalNotificationsPlugin>()
          ?.createNotificationChannel(stickyChannel);
      await _flutterLocalNotificationsPlugin
          .resolvePlatformSpecificImplementation<
              AndroidFlutterLocalNotificationsPlugin>()
          ?.createNotificationChannel(alertChannel);
    } else {
      throw Exception("Unsupported platform for notifications.");
    }
  }

 Future<void> startAnroidStickyNotification() async {
    if (!Platform.isAndroid || !_settings.notificationsEnabled) {
      return;
    }
    var activeAlerts = await _flutterLocalNotificationsPlugin
        .resolvePlatformSpecificImplementation<
            AndroidFlutterLocalNotificationsPlugin>()
        ?.getActiveNotifications();
    if (activeAlerts
            ?.where((alert) => alert.id == stickyNotificationId)
            .isNotEmpty ??
        false) {
      return;
    }
    var duration = Util.prettyPrintDuration(
        duration: Duration(seconds: _settings.refreshInterval),
        longForm: true,
        stripLeadingOne: true);
    await _flutterLocalNotificationsPlugin
        .resolvePlatformSpecificImplementation<
            AndroidFlutterLocalNotificationsPlugin>()
        ?.startForegroundService(stickyNotificationId, stickyNotificationTitle,
            "$stickyNotificationContentStart $duration",
            notificationDetails: _stickyAndroidNotificationDetails,
            foregroundServiceTypes: {
          AndroidServiceForegroundType.foregroundServiceTypeDataSync
        });
  }

Similar to what I mentioned in https://github.com/MaikuB/flutter_local_notifications/issues/2407, since this is something you'd been able to reproduce and foreground service support was a community contribute, I'd say this would also be one resolved by you submitting a PR back

I think that this issue likely belongs here instead: https://github.com/AhsanSarwar45/flutter_boot_receiver/issues/10. The mention of com.dexterous.flutterlocalnotifications.ForegroundService is likely due to the fact that it's referenced in the AndroidManifest.xml file as a foreground service.
