Had to add the following :

    <config-file parent="/manifest/application" target="AndroidManifest.xml">
        <activity android:clearTaskOnLaunch="true" android:configChanges="orientation|keyboardHidden" android:exported="false" android:name="com.google.zxing.client.android.CaptureActivity" android:screenOrientation="portrait" android:theme="@android:style/Theme.NoTitleBar.Fullscreen" android:windowSoftInputMode="stateAlwaysHidden">
            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="com.phonegap.plugins.barcodescanner.SCAN" />
                <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
            </intent-filter>
        </activity>
    </config-file>

However, this generated an error, duplicate entries in AndroidManifest.xml :

platforms\android\app\src\main\AndroidManifest.xml:20:9-25:20 Error:
    Element activity#com.google.zxing.client.android.CaptureActivity at AndroidManifest.xml:20:9-25:20 duplicated with element declared at AndroidManifest.xml:12:9-311
platforms\android\app\src\main\AndroidManifest.xml Error:
    Validation failed, exiting

And in AndroidManifest.xml :

   <activity android:clearTaskOnLaunch="true" android:configChanges="orientation|keyboardHidden|screenSize" android:exported="false" android:name="com.google.zxing.client.android.CaptureActivity" android:theme="@android:style/Theme.NoTitleBar.Fullscreen" android:windowSoftInputMode="stateAlwaysHidden" />

   <activity android:clearTaskOnLaunch="true" android:configChanges="orientation|keyboardHidden" android:exported="false" android:name="com.google.zxing.client.android.CaptureActivity" android:screenOrientation="portrait" android:theme="@android:style/Theme.NoTitleBar.Fullscreen" android:windowSoftInputMode="stateAlwaysHidden">
        <intent-filter>
            <action android:name="com.phonegap.plugins.barcodescanner.SCAN" />
            <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
        </intent-filter>
    </activity>

Still looking for the solution as either nothing in AndroidManifest.xml or duplicated entries....
