Research direction

Start by reproducing the reported timedatectl output and compare Local time, Universal time, and RTC time across repeated runs. Check the issue's UTC configuration and determine whether the one-second difference is expected behavior or indicates a clock problem; done means documenting the explanation or identifying a confirmed defect.
