Random post sort in Flex Block 1 not working

Hi, we have a Flex Block 1 on this test page:

https://rethinking65.com/sponsored-callout/

with the sort order set to Random Post and the Category filter set to Sponsored Content, which has 10 posts assigned to it. The Offset field is blank, and the Limit Post Number is 2. But however often we reload the page, after clearing caches in various browsers, we still see only the same two articles. Hoping there is a simple way to correct this. Thanks!

Hi,
Is this problem persisting when you are logged in? Did you try it only with the theme plugins?
Also, do you use object cache?
Thank you!

Hi, Calin. Happens whether we are logged in or not. I set it up on our staging site as with my other question, so I could rule out any plugins as causing the issue:

I see that the flex block is sort on random posts and is filter after the category with id 44. Also, I see that are found 4 posts and 2 are displayed. in the source code everything seems to be fine -> https://i.imgur.com/VR2A0um.png
Maybe there is some object cache. If you can provide the wp-admin access via email will check this problem with the other one.
Thank you!
