SUMMARY
When I create a new canvas or try to open a recent image, Krita remains stuck on start screen until minimized and reopened. This issue does not occur in the nightly builds.
I had this issue when I was using Galaxy Tab S9 ultra long ago, I havenˋt had a tablet in a while and recently got the newest Tab 11 Ultra, and this issue is still present. Same back then, didnˋt happen on nightly builds, just the final release.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open krita
2. Create a new canvas or open a recent image, waiting...
3. Minimize and reopen to see the canvas or image you created.

OBSERVED RESULT
Krita remains stuck on the start screen when a canvas is created.
To get unstuck from the start screen, krita must be minimized and reopened.

EXPECTED RESULT
Canvas should open immediately it is created.
Recent images should open as soon as they are clicked.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Android 16
