This seems to be an iPhone or mobile app issue:

There are times when I'll get a notification on the PM app on my iPhone, and even after tapping on it and reading the notification, the red number doesn't go away, and new notifications don't show. If I move over to the desktop, the problem isn't there. Eventually, it clears, but I have no idea how or why it clears. I've cleared the cache on my phone, to no avail.

Any ideas?

I've noticed that, too. It usually means there is an old notification down the list that I haven't accessed yet. I often need to choose "Show All" in order to get to it. And I will, because I'm one of those "Inbox Zero" types.
Yup, this is what I've done too.

Click "Show all..." at the bottom.

Click "Mark read"

Sometimes it still shows a notification eve though you've read everything and the only way to clear them out.
