Android activity back transition brakes when going back 2 screens

I made a simple sample to prove that there is something wrong with ActivityOptions.makeSceneTransitionAnimation(activity).

I got 3 activities: A, B & C. Flow is simple: A -> B -> C

All activities share the same style:

<style name="TransitionsTheme" parent="Theme.MaterialComponents.Light.NoActionBar">
    <item name="android:windowEnterTransition">@transition/slide_in_from_bottom</item>
    <item name="android:windowExitTransition">@transition/slide_out_to_bottom</item>
</style>

Whenever I go: A -> B -> C -> B (back button) -> A (back button) last animation(A -> C) is not played.

It works fine when only doing A -> B -> A (back button)

Here is how I start activities:

fun start(activity: Activity) {
            val intent = Intent(activity, TransitionActivityA::class.java) //or B or C
            val transitionsOptions = ActivityOptions.makeSceneTransitionAnimation(activity)
            activity.startActivity(intent, transitionsOptions.toBundle())
        }

Is that an Android bug or am I doing something wrong?
