Description
the blog lists ARM DSC Extension Settings
https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/powershell/2016/02/26/arm-dsc-extension-settings/
"advancedOptions": {
"forcePullAndApply": true
}
"Enables the DSC Extension to update and enact DSC configurations when the refresh mode is Pull."
however this does not work when using an ARM template calling via the Linux Extension.
Windows takes the thing and configures immediately. Linux I'm left waiting a cycle period, which is terrible for a new deployment.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue with an ARM template calling the Linux Extension and the documented advancedOptions.forcePullAndApply setting. Compare the Linux behavior with the Windows behavior described in the issue and the linked ARM DSC Extension Settings documentation. Done means a new deployment applies the DSC configuration immediately instead of waiting for the refresh cycle.
