I'm running into the same behavior.

The following worked for me inside my UITabBarController:
if #available(iOS 13.0, *) {
let appearance = tabBar.standardAppearance.copy()
setTabBarItemBadgeAppearance(appearance.stackedLayoutAppearance)
setTabBarItemBadgeAppearance(appearance.inlineLayoutAppearance)
setTabBarItemBadgeAppearance(appearance.compactInlineLayoutAppearance)
tabBar.standardAppearance = appearance
if #available(iOS 15.0, *) {
tabBar.scrollEdgeAppearance = appearance
}
@available(iOS 13.0, *)
private func setTabBarItemBadgeAppearance(_ itemAppearance: UITabBarItemAppearance) {
itemAppearance.normal.badgeBackgroundColor = UIColor.green
}
