 I've been sitting on this issue for a while and haven't yet managed to get
 to the bottom of it.

 If the backend is restarted while in playback, and possibly under other
 conditions, it appears invalid notification screens are added to the
 stack. The underlying reason for the screens being invalid might be theme
 related, but there are no errors in the logs to indicate this is the case.
 Notifications aren't displayed during playback.

 When it comes to processing the ESCAPE action, we won't exit if there are
 notifications in the stack since they need to be dismissed first. Because
 they are invalid, they can't be dismissed and the ESCAPE action does
 nothing at all. The frontend remains unable to exit playback until it does
 so at the end of the recording. The invalid notifications remain in the
 stack despite exiting playback and will block playback exit for any
 subsequent recordings, meaning the only fix is to restart the frontend.
