Root cause

On further investigation:
Root-cause was Bitwarden was installed in the Root Account (using F-Droid)
So, unable to install Bitwarden in second profile (with Sandboxed Google Play)

Bitwarden notification don't work in the second profile (even with the app open -- which is kinda annoying)

Resolution

Uninstall Bitwarden from Root profile.
Install in second profile, enable Notifications; pending login requests appear as notification toast (only) - click on notification and then prompts for "login other device" auth.

Note

Leaving this here for others that have the same issue. please close if as designed
(although it would be great if there was a way to receive notifications of these pending requests on a second profile other than digging down into settings>account security>pending login requests submenu.
