This isn't ideal and should be fixed at some point, but I think we have a number of strange behaviors with doorhanger positions on new tab and probably needs a comprehensive fix. That being said, I don't really see this as blocking.

On debugging, issue seems to be pageproxystate is invalid for urlbar element on about:welcome page and we hide notification-popup-box box containing addons-notification icon by default for invalid states

https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/browser/base/content/browser.css#754

One option to fix is explicitly unhiding notification-popup-box before sending AddonManager.getInstallForUrl call from about:welcome page 

https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/browser/components/newtab/lib/ASRouter.jsm#226

Other option is to update pageproxystate to 'valid' for about:welcome provided location bar on welcome page doesn't have any dependent feature tied to invalid pageproxystate
https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/browser/base/content/browser.js#2789

The string "valid" indicates that the security indicators and other related user interface elments should be shown which we probably don't want for welcome page, will submit patch with fix in ASRouter.jsm to unhide addons-notification icon.
