Alerting

Issue with Alert Actions. Is it a known bug?

I have an alert which performs 2 actions-Calls a Slack webhook and sends an email. But sometimes when it triggers it skips the slack webhook action and only triggers an email. There are no error in the logs. The alert_action field in the log only shows email. PFB the log for both scenarios. Any Pointers?

When it triggers both the action:-

06-19-2018 00:15:03.360 -0700 INFO  SavedSplunker - savedsearch_id="nobody;app;Error Alert", search_type="", user="svc", app="app", savedsearch_name="Error Alert", priority=default, status=success, digest_mode=0, scheduled_time=1529392500, window_time=0, dispatch_time=1529392501, run_time=0.752, result_count=1, alert_actions="email,slack", sid="scheduler_c3ZjLmEuc3Bsay1jc3Rv__csrt__RMD54b798c035b9e1f03_at_1529392500_73133_C96C1272-59A3-4440-81F8-D95FEB00CFBB", suppressed=0, fired=1, skipped=0, action_time_ms=1138, thread_id="AlertNotifierWorker-0", message=""

When it triggers only email
