Manifest not loading after reload (Next.js 15 App Router)

Hi ,

I'm having an issue where my manifest.webmanifest is not being requested by the browser after a page reload (F5) when using Next.js 15 with the App Router.

The manifest loads correctly if I make changes to my root layout and trigger a rebuild, but after refreshing the page it disappears from the <head> and is not requested again.

I've confirmed:
The manifest file is in /public.
The metadata.manifest is properly configured in the root layout.
Middleware is correctly bypassing static files.

It feels like either a bug or something I'm missing related to metadata hydration.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Sorry for the bad English.

Thanks!
