Android Jetpack navigation deeplinks not generating well on AndroidManifest

Question

The problem

I'm having trouble with deeplinks in Android navigation XML

<fragment
        ...
        <deepLink app:uri="app://contact" />
</fragment>

Then Jetpack library generates this code in the Merged AndroidManifest.xml

<intent-filter
    ...
    <data android:scheme="app"/>
    <data android:host="contact"/>
    <data android:path="/"/>

This last line generates that my deep link is not recognized when I execute it manually from the command line:

adb shell am start -a android.intent.action.VIEW -d "app://contact"

or

adb shell am start -a android.intent.action.VIEW -d "app://contact/"

The problem is partially solved adding '/' at the first bunch of code

     <deepLink app:uri="app://contact/" />

This also generates the same code in the AndroidManifest.xml After doing it, the following deep link works: "app://contact/"

Question:

is there a way to make it work using just "app://contact" ?
