🔥 [🐛] Bug Report Title - No task registered for key ReactNativeFirebaseMessagingHeadlessTask

[ricardojmf]

Issue

I'm currently using Expo v49 with firebase cloud messaging API V1 but can't put background push notifications working on the quitted state for Android.

We have two situations for setBackgroundMessageHandler to trigger on Android:

• When the app is idle in the background. ✅
• When the app is quitted. 🚫 .

The first one works properly, but the last one does not work. It gives me this error: No task registered for key ReactNativeFirebaseMessagingHeadlessTask

Can you help me please?
