Bug Description

When I receive an e-mail, a notification appears. I click it in order for Thunderbird to open on the correct e-mail. But Thunderbird doesn't open right away, a new notification "'Thunderbird' is ready" appears, which I have to click in order for Thunderbird to open correctly.

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:95.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/95.0

Steps to reproduce:

Received an e-mail, saw the notification, clicked it to open the e-mail.

Actual results:

The window did not switch to Thunderbird, it only selected the e-mail within the Thunderbird window. I then had to manually switch to Thunderbird to read the e-mail.

Expected results:

The window should have switched to Thunderbird, with a focus on the e-mail I received and for which I clicked the notification.
