Spot Colors Won't Update In Linked Items
Spot Colors are not immediately updating for linked items when adjusting the color values of the swatch. The change will only show after a few seconds, when the file is embedded, or when overprint preview is enabled. Previous versions of illustrator allowed spot colors to be updated for linked items immediately. Spot color adjustments only immediately affect objects that are embedded or built within the file.
Using illustrator for color separations requires me to edit the appearance of spot white to be visible in different circumstances between film and art files.

I confirm. For me it just don’t get updated until I reopen the file. Toggling Overprint won’t help. When a source is changed and saved, Ai detects it is updated, but the color changes never happens. Only reopening forces it to read it back.
Can you recall exactly or test when this problem happened, in what build exactly?
