Description
- The Timers don't work anymore, they don't get activated anymore (for example, if their value property changes)

- Create a Thing: test_timer
- Add the Template: Timer
- Properties -> Add My Property:
- Name: test_prop
- Base Type: Number
- Persistent checked
- Logged checked
- Configuration:
- Update Rate: 30000

- Save
- On another thing created previously -> Subscription:
- Source: Timer
- Event: DataChange
- Property: test_prop
- Snippets -> Script: test_prop = 20;
- Enabled: true
- Save
- Getting back to test_timer -> Properties -> and refreshing the value of test_prop, it's not refreshing, not even after the time selected in the Updated Rate field
- Warning in the Application logs:
- Thing [test_timer] has logged properties but does not have a valid value stream assigned
