In a strict sense, this is correct behavior: There is no new data. We'll have 
to make circular buffers in order to keep the new data and signal that to the 
component. Since updateHook() was called at least once (buffer has size of at 
least 1), you could always call trigger() if your code counts on being woken 
up again.
