iOS SplitViewController and Push Notifications

[willemVP]

We've set up a development server that sends out push notifications to our devices.
The body contains an id to show the details of the specified event.
Everything works fine on the iPhone but we have problems on the iPad.

The appDelegate had a method that is triggered when a RemoteNotification is received. When we click our notification (while the app is running in background) than the above method is triggered but our detailViewController isn't set yet. This way we can't get our detailviewController to open up with our specific event.

Has anybody else tried this before?

When we click our notification (while the app is running in background) than the above method is triggered but our detailViewController isn't set yet.

If the app is running in the background, why wouldn't the detailViewController be set yet? Or is it just that you no longer have a reference to it? If the latter, this notification need might be a good reason to keep such a reference.
