Signal Event stays active after being signaled until following activity is completed

[cnayak]

This behavior is seen when there are multiple outgoing transitions from a signal event ( to either multiple user tasks or a timer event and user task). When the signal event is successfully signaled, the workflow correctly transitions to the next activities in the execution but the signal event lingers in the ACT_RU_EVENT_SUBSCR table. Completing any of the activities that follow the signal event makes this entry go away. Is this behavior intended and expected  or is this is bug ?

The signal behavior above is seen while running with Activiti 5.19.0.2.

Hi Cnayak,

For me it is hard to understand the description. Could you create a jUnit test please?
