Home Screen Chrome Shortcuts not working topic

I have 4 shortcuts on my home screen that only work some of the time. If I am using chrome and then I press the Home button to go back to the home screen then tap one of of my shortcuts it switches back to chrome (the last page I was on) but it doesn't load the shortcut from my Home Screen.
If I then close all the chrome tabs and then repeat, the Home Screen shortcuts work fine. Does this happen to anyone else and if so it's there a fix?

Cheers
