Bug Report

Ionic version:
ionic version
5.2.1

Current behavior:
When creating a modal screen and invoking it from a button enabled on the HomePage, when I press on the Home menu, instead of loading the HomePage, the PopupPage is loaded directly.

Expected behavior:
The HomePage page should load and display instead of PopupPage.

Steps to reproduce:

1. ionic start myApp sidemenu
2. ionic g page popup
3. After the HomePape page card, we add
   <ion-button color = "primary" (click) = "loadPopup ()"> Load popup
   in home.page.html
   In home.pase.ts:
   public loadPopup() {
   this.presentModal();
   }

async presentModal() {
const modal = await this.modalController.create({
component: PopupPage
});
return await modal.present();
}
4. In home.module.ts we import PopupPageModule, as indicated in the documentation of ion-modal / ion-modal-controller (lazy loading):
import {PopupPageModule} from '../popup/popup.module';
and add PopupPageModule to imports array.

Now, clicking on the Home menu option, the PopupPage page is loaded, instead of HomePage.

It is reproduced with the sample application that Ionic creates with sidemenu.
