I want to use the demo application TestDPC released by Google to create a Work Profile with my own device policy controller so I added some code to this app in order to connect to GCM service to receive cloud messages to start some actions on my device.
To connect to GCM I used some example code that I tested separately and it works, the only thing I added is a boot listener (ReceiverStarter) in order to activate GCM listener everytime the user reboot his device.
The strange thing is that when I install my app on device (Samsung Note 4 with Android 5.1.1 API 22) without create a managed profile the GCM client works properly.
If with the app early installed I create a work profile and the app itslef take control over the new profile the same code for GCM doesn't work anymore.
I can see (using notifications) that in this case my dpc app can register to GCM and fetch GCM ID and I can read it in my console but the listener (MyGcmListenerService) doesn't receive any cloud messages as if the listener is not up and running, I cannot see any errors and/or logs in my console.
Maybe I need some more permissions?
Here my manifest

I don't think it depends by code, as I said the same app and the same code without a work profile works well.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance
EDIT: here the same problem
