Description of problem:

When a user modifies the filters on the Approvals list (e.g., clearing the "Pending" status to see all tasks), navigates into a specific Approval Task, and then navigates back to the Approvals list, it prevents the user from viewing the list or modifying the filters in OCP 4.18

In OCP 4.19, Able to navigate back and modify the filter. It still shows the welcome banner

Prerequisites (if any, like setup, operators/versions):

OCP 4.18

1.21.0

Steps to Reproduce

• Navigate to Pipelines > Approvals in the OpenShift Console.

• Clear the default "Approval status: Pending" filter to view all tasks.

• Click on any Approval Task name to open its details page.

• Click the Approvals to return to the list view.

Actual results:

The Approvals list should retain the user's previous filter state (Empty filter / All tasks visible) and display the list of Approval Tasks. The Getting Started banner should not appear if tasks exist.

Expected results:

• The filter forcibly resets to "Approval status: Pending".

• The UI displays the "Getting Started" / "Create a project" banner, blocking the actual list context.

• The user is restricted from interacting with the filters or refreshing the list properly.

Reproducibility (Always/Intermittent/Only Once):

Always
