I would expect it to store the CCC state as well in the persistent
storage if one exists.

But I already fixed this problem not long ago:

commit 14569a33418a4c1dc07cca090b9336373d63a085

    core/device: Fix not handling notification

    attio callbacks needs to be triggered as soon as possible once connected
    otherwise profiles such as HoG may miss notification that are sent while
    bt_gatt_client is doing MTU exchange.

Perhaps you don't have this patch?
