Steps to reproduce
- Start with opening Talk so that your profile is loaded by the application.
- On Nextcloud, change your profile picture.
- Return to talk. The profile won't be updated even after rebooting the application.
Expected behaviour
The profile should update on the talk client if it changes.
Actual behaviour
The profile picture remains the same for extended periods of time. This includes past app reboots and force reloads.

Client logs
Logs are after running a Force Reload. Issue still occurs.
(I don't think the logs help in this case)

Research direction
Start by reproducing the stale profile picture in the Talk desktop client: load the profile, change the picture in Nextcloud, then use a force reload or restart. Trace how the client loads and refreshes profile data; done means the updated picture appears without extended delay after the change.
