Wierd router issue

I have something strange happening. Didn't notice it before.

When I use <a href=""> in my view files the url is as it should be eg: https://site.ext/backend/users or https://site.ext/backend/login

But when I use a redirect within a controller then 'public' is added to the path. Anyone have an idea how to prevent the public from appearing when using a redirect?

  return $this->response->redirect( 'backend' );

This should redirect me to https://site.ext/backend/ but instead it redirects me to https://site.ext/public/backend/ instead. I do not recall having this issue with other phalcon projects.

The site is running on a vagrant vm in a virtualbox environment, with apache and php-fpm. The used .htaccess files are as follows:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
  RewriteEngine on
  RewriteRule ^$ public/         [L]
  RewriteRule ((?s).*) public/$1 [L]
</IfModule>

and 

AddDefaultCharset UTF-8

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
  RewriteEngine On

  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
  RewriteRule ^((?s).*)$ index.php?_url=/$1 [QSA,L]
</IfModule>

Seems I found a solution to my issue. Placing this in the depencency injector solves my problem.

      // Set-up url
      $di->set( 'url', function()
      {
        return (new Url())
          ->setBaseUri( "/" );
      });

Always set base URI using setBaseUri.

I always put that value in a config object:

$url->setBaseUri($config->application->baseUri);
