 ### Fixed
 * Using keypaths in Flows could sometimes throw `java.lang.IllegalStateException: [RLM_ERR_WRONG_THREAD]: Realm accessed from incorrect thread.`. (Issue [#1594](https://github.com/realm/realm-kotlin/pull/1594, since 1.13.0)
+* Cache notification callback JNI references at startup to ensure that symbols can be resolved in core callbacks. (Issue [#1577](https://github.com/realm/realm-kotlin/issues/1577))
 
 ### Compatibility
 * File format: Generates Realms with file format v23.
