Dashboards not updating on load

Hi,
In Grafana v11.4.0, dashboards no longer update on load when navigating back to them. For example, if I view Dashboard A, switch to Dashboard B for 5 minutes, and then return to Dashboard A, the data on Dashboard A remains outdated. It only updates on the next Auto Refresh interval (set to 1 minute in my case). This behavior was not present in earlier versions of Grafana.

Setup Details:

• Grafana self-hosted
• Nginx as reverse proxy
• InfluxDB as data source for all dashboards

What I’ve Tried:

• Verified that Nginx isn’t serving cached data.
• Adjusted every possible relevant setting in Grafana.
• Tried forcing Cache-Control: no-store on Nginx, but Grafana still doesn’t fetch updated data upon loading the dashboard.

It seems Grafana itself isn’t attempting to refresh the data on load.

Question:
How can I restore the previous behavior where dashboards would refresh automatically when loaded?
