Matrix not updating

I have a Matrix visual that fails to update when I change a "what-if" parameter that is used in a measure that I use in the matrix cells.

 

If I make changes elsewhere on the page eg. click a slicer off and on again, then the matrix picks up my new "what-if" value, but obviously I want it to refresh without having to do that.

 

Has anyone else had this problem?  Is it a known bug?

 

PS.  I've also noticed that if I rename my column or row variables, these changes aren't picked up by the matrix either until I again make other changes on the page.

Managed to break this again, but finally figured out the cause of the problem,.

 

Turing off the Auto-size formatting option under Column Headers prevents the visual from updating when changes are made to the what-if parameter.

I fixed both these problems by turning the slider option off and on again. Since doing that everything is working as expected.
