We're seeing this issue too. We're using Android 14, and have replicated it with Edge (v127), Edge Beta (v128) and Edge Dev (v129). Chrome doesn't have this issue, but SSO isn't possible with Chrome (please let me know if this is possible.)

We're instructing people to "close all tabs in Edge and press back once to show the authentication prompt".
