Digital Clock Card only updating every hour

[Landshark77]

Having an issue where the clock card is not updating. Seems to only be updating about every hour. This occurs no matter which device is being used to present my dashboard -- iPhone, iPad, Fire tablet, Windows.

I have confirmed the time is correct within HA, only the card is not updating.

I'm running:

• Core 2024.1.6
• Supervisor 2024.01.1
• Operating System 11.4
• Frontend 20240104.0
• Digital Clock v1.2.4

Here's my yaml:

type: custom:digital-clock
dateFormat:
  weekday: long
  day: 2-digit
  month: long
timeFormat: h:hh a
timeZone: America/Chicago
locale: en
card_mod:
  style: |
    ha-card {
      --ha-card-background: black;
      color: white;
      font-size: 11px;
      text-align-last: left;
    }

Noticed it was just the hour getting updated. Minutes were never updating. Did not like the 'h:hh a' format I was using. After changing to the below yaml, it works.

So maybe the question is why does it accept 'h:hh a' and displays it correctly on the dashboard, but just doesn't update the minute?

type: custom:digital-clock
dateFormat:
  weekday: long
  day: 2-digit
  month: long
timeFormat:
  hour: 2-digit
  minute: 2-digit
timeZone: America/Chicago
locale: en
card_mod:
  style: |
    ha-card {
      --ha-card-background: black;
      color: white;
      font-size: 11px;
      text-align-last: left;
    }

Thanks for the workaround. I ran into this problem, too.
