Hi All,
I am using an nrf52832 and using NCS version 2.6.0. I am having an issue where I am trying to initialize and run a thread, but the thread never runs. I have tried an assortment of processes and configurations with no luck thus far. Below will be the relevant code file and an example print output. Any advice on what the issue could be would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

As shown in the above log, thread creation and start appear to be successful, but the thread function send_emergency_noti() never gets called.
