Homekit does not reflect recently added devices

I have a few switches and sensors setup in HASS and bridged to Homekit successfully. The problem is, when I integrate some new switches and sensors into HASS after Homekit is paired, Apple Home does not reflect those new devices. It seems like I have to, in HASS, delete the previous Homekit bridge, setup, and pair a new one with the same settings, to have those new devices show up in Apple Home. Is this intended?

In my experience, you just need to restart the Home Assistant Core process. I rarely do that though and I just cycle my entire HAOS.
