Answer 1

tldr: try using fragmentManager instead of supportFragmentManager if the code doesn't work

solution: fragmentManager.popBackStackImmediate(tagName, 0)

I know it's an old question but after spending a few hours on this, I wasn't able to get close to the desired result.

I was using supportFragmentManager and the code was:

supportFragmentManager.popBackStackImmediate(tagName, 0)

but it wasn't working as intended neither according to what was written in the documentation. Just as a fluke I thought about using the fragmentManager instead of the supportFragmentManager and voila, it worked!

So for anyone stuck on this, maybe give this a try.
