### Bug description

I have Nextcloud desktop set up to sync with three servers.

I noticed several times that files were not synced to my computers, while they were changed at the server. Triggering manually a sync in Nextcloud client does get the latest version of the files to the client.

I do not know if this is related to having multiple remote servers.

### Steps to reproduce

Set up Nextcloud client to synchronize with some Nextcloud servers.

Note that files are not always up to date.

Could this be related to suspending the computer running Nextcloud Desktop?

### Expected behavior

Files in selected directories are kept up to date with server.
