Force update of sensor every x minutes

it’s not a bug, it’s how home assistant is designed. You can make an automation to force an update on the integration entity.

This will force an update if the value hasn’t changed in 30 seconds.

- alias:  Update xyz when states haven't changed
  trigger:
  - platform: state
    entity_id: sensor.integration_entity
    for: "00:00:30"
  action:
  - service: homeassistant.update_entity
    target:
      entity_id: sensor.integration_entity
