Description
I have a logback.xml configured and enabling the splunk appender on ROOT logger makes the application not terminate. I have seen some closed issues regarding this; I am facing this issue in 1.11.7
[restartedMain] DEBUG o.a.h.i.c.PoolingHttpClientConnectionManager - Connection manager shut down
[restartedMain] INFO com.app.Application - Execution time in seconds: 0
[restartedMain] DEBUG o.s.boot.devtools.restart.Restarter - Creating new Restarter for thread Thread[main,5,main]
[restartedMain] DEBUG o.s.boot.devtools.restart.Restarter - Immediately restarting application
[restartedMain] DEBUG o.s.boot.devtools.restart.Restarter - Starting application com.app.Application with URLs [file:/workspaces/app/target/classes/]
[restartedMain] DEBUG o.s.b.a.ApplicationAvailabilityBean - Application availability state ReadinessState changed to ACCEPTING_TRAFFIC
Any Ideas?

Research direction
Start by reproducing the behavior with the reported logback.xml configuration, enabling the Splunk appender on the ROOT logger in the stated application version. Inspect the shutdown sequence around the connection-manager message and Spring Boot DevTools restart output. Done means identifying why the application remains active and confirming that it terminates normally with the appender enabled.
