Ok got it working soon after posting my question. I think the key difference in our code is that I pass the flag "PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT" to the creation/retrieval of the PendingIntent object. This post helped me figure that out.

Notification.Builder mBuilder =
                new Notification.Builder(context)
                .setSmallIcon(R.drawable.notifyicon)
                .setContentTitle(title)
                .setContentText(extras.getString("message"))
                .setAutoCancel(true)
                .setOnlyAlertOnce(false)
                .setSound(RingtoneManager.getDefaultUri(RingtoneManager.TYPE_NOTIFICATION))
                .setVibrate(new long[] {0,500,250,500});

        if(badgeCount > 1)
            mBuilder.setNumber(badgeCount);
        // Creates an explicit intent for an Activity in your app
        Intent resultIntent = new Intent(context, SiteViewActivity.class);
        resultIntent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP | Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_SINGLE_TOP);
        resultIntent.putExtra(NOTIFY_INTENT_TYPE_KEY, alertType);

        PendingIntent resultPendingIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(context, alertType, resultIntent, PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT);
        mBuilder.setContentIntent(resultPendingIntent);
        NotificationManager notifyMgr = (NotificationManager) context.getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);
        notifyMgr.notify(alertType, mBuilder.build());
