Steps:

• Setup an Android project with targetSdkVersion 31
• In the same project, include version v8.0.0 of MarketingCloud: implementation "com.salesforce.marketingcloud:marketingcloudsdk:8.0.0"
• Setup MarketingCloud SDK using following instructions
  • "Full Control Customization" https://salesforce-marketingcloud.github.io/MarketingCloudSDK-Android/notifications/customize-notifications.html
• Compile the app in Android Studio and run the app on Android 12 Beta
• Send a test notification and tap it

Result:

• Activity does not start.
• Following log is printed in Logcat

10-06 10:18:22.977 1534 3091 E NotificationService: Indirect notification activity start (trampoline) from com.example.app blocked

By rewriting following code

builder.setContentIntent(
          NotificationManager.redirectIntentForAnalytics(
            context,
            PendingIntent.getActivity(
              context,
              Random().nextInt(),
              Intent(context, MainActivity::class.java),
              PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT
            ),
            notificationMessage,
            true
          )
        )

with

builder.setContentIntent(
          PendingIntent.getActivity(
              context,
              Random().nextInt(),
              Intent(context, MainActivity::class.java),
              PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT
          )
        )

the app is launches correctly.

I think this problem is related to https://developer.android.com/about/versions/12/behavior-changes-12?hl=en#notification-trampolines
