`history_stats` sensor not updating in core-2024.1.0

[danps1]

The problem

Since updating to core-2024.1.0 my history_stats sensors do not seem to be updating correctly.

I have several that have worked for (literally) years. One example is a sensor that tracks usage of my pool Chlorinator, so that it can automatically be turned off once a threshold is reached. Here is the YAML for the sensor...

- platform: history_stats
  name: Chlorinator time today
  entity_id: binary_sensor.chlorinator_running
  state: "on"
  type: time
  start: "{{ now().replace(hour=0).replace(minute=0).replace(second=0) }}"
  end: "{{ now() }}"

And here is a graph showing the incorrect behaviour...

I first noticed this morning after the chlorinator had been running for approx. 2hrs that the sensor was show 0, so I restarted HA, and it seemed to come good (as you can see in the graph). Later in the afternoon I checked it and the value was "frozen" again, so another restart, and it then came good again.

Not other change to these sensors other than the core update.
