🐞 Describe the bug
When I receive a notification on Android application, it vibrates and emits sound. If I receive a subsequent notification, it will not generate any sound or vibration. The only way for new message to vibrate or generate sound is to clear the ntfy notifications in Android and then next message will generate sound and vibration. I use a single topic and send messages with highest priority.

💻 Components impacted
Android app

🔮 Additional context
I run Android 16. I disabled the notification cooldown feature in Android 16. This seems to be an application behavior as other application can generate sound and vibration for new notification even if old notification are still present.

This is annoying as I don't clear notification when I need to take action on something. Because 1 notification wasn't cleared, then I don't know when there new message in same topic.

This is an Android 16 OS bug: https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/427367143

Some apps work okay because they set a group ID for each notification. ntfy isn't doing that right now, but I wouldn't expect an Android update soon, unfortunately
