Describe the bug

Android specific issue (works on iOS with both plugins installed). Firebase dynamic links are working fine without the cordova-plugin-ionic installed. After installing it, either with none, auto or background mode, Firebase dynamic links are not working anymore. The user is redirected to the application after clicking a Firebase dynamic link, but there nothing happens inside firebaseDynamicLinks.onDynamicLink subscription

To Reproduce

Setup Firebase dynamic links as described here (https://ionicframework.com/docs/native/firebase-dynamic-links) Setup cordova-plugin-ionic Listen to Firebase dynamic links like this :

   this.firebaseDynamicLinks.onDynamicLink().subscribe(
      (res: any) => {
        console.log ("Receiving Firebase DL", res)
        console.log ("deepLink", res.deepLink)
      },
      (error: any) => {
        console.error("Firebase DL ERROR", error)
      }
    );

Click on a Firebase dynamic link from outside the application and be redirected to the application. Nothing happens... Remove cordova-plugin-ionic from the android platform Listen for Firebase dynamic links again, it works !

Expected behavior

Firebase dynamic links should handle links when clicked from outside the application and process the link path within the firebaseDynamicLinks.onDynamicLink subscription
