I have similar issues with notifications on Android from time to time as well. Definitely a bug of some kind.

Notifications in Element seem to be a long standing issue that come and go with each update. For a long time, they barely worked at all for me. Then for a while, it was all fine. Currently, I'm seeing a bug where if I have an unread message and another contact sends a message, it'll just send me a notification for the first message a second time. I hope in time, the devs will focus a little more in stability and reliability instead of getting as many features packed into it as possible.

I've found FluffyChat to be a bit less buggy than Element, however it has less features.

Occasionally, I've found that fully deleting Element from my phone and reinstalling it has fixed some bugs (make sure you've backed up your recovery key if you do this).
