Sometimes the presentation gets out of sync with the server state

Occasional full sync is probably a good idea

Yes, kindof. It's probably good to solve these together.

Great, thanks a lot @ahsanfarooq210. During the latest use of CHASE I observed that the state of the presentation view sometimes goes out of sync with the actual server state and the chair dashboard. It might be a good idea to occasionally sync all necessary state from the server to the client to prevent/mitigate these state drifts. Additionally it would be nice to know why this happens and how to reproduce.

A few additional notes:

• Houdini allows to invalidate all cached state which will trigger a new cache buildup. This could become handy.
• I observed the drift with the presence detection, the delegation is marked as non present in the presentation view, even though it is shown and set as present in the control view
• The timer in the presentation view gets out of sync and is up by a few seconds. This is what Syncing the backend time during runtime would prevent getting out of sync eventually #269 is about.
