Steps to reproduce the bug

Description: The timer stops and does not send notifications when the app is closed.

1. Create a new 15 seconds timer
2. Start the timer
3. Immediately leave/close the Fossify Clock app (this step is crucial)
4. Wait for the timer notification

Expected behavior

After 15 seconds, a sound and popup notification should appear.

Actual behavior

1. No notification is received.
2. Reopening Fossify Clock and checking the timer settings shows that the timer is still running in countdown mode, even after waiting for 2 minutes.
3. Notifications are only triggered if the timer settings are open/focused; they appear as soon as the timer reaches zero in this state.
