Ascension Crest Aura red notification will not clear - full 3-stack affected

Platform: PC
Launcher: EA App / Epic Games Launcher
Legend: Ballistic
Menu path: Ballistic → Skins → Auras → Ascension Crest

Issue:
The red “new/unseen” notification marker on the Ascension Crest Aura will not stay cleared.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Go to Ballistic → Skins → Auras.
2. Select Ascension Crest.
3. Equip Ascension Crest.
4. Back out to the lobby.
5. Enter Firing Range.
6. Leave Firing Range and return to the lobby.
7. The red notification marker returns again.

Expected result:
After selecting/equipping the Aura, the red notification should clear permanently.

Actual result:
The red notification returns every time the lobby reloads after leaving Firing Range.

Troubleshooting already tried:
- Cleared EA App cache using App Recovery.
- Cleared Epic Games Launcher cache.
- Deleted Apex local cache/state files including previousgamestate.txt and psoCache.pso.
- Equipped Ascension Crest, backed out, unequipped/re-equipped it.
- Re-tested after entering and leaving Firing Range.

Important extra detail:
This is happening to my full 3-stack, not just me. All three of us have the same issue with the Aura notification returning, so it appears to be game-side/account-side rather than a local cache issue.
