GUI of Surge VST3 is not updating when I turn the knobs on my midi controller

I want to use Surge Synthesizer (VST3) with a midi controller, but if i turn the knobs of my midi controller the VST GUI does not get updated. However, if I hover my mouse over the controls in the GUI of the VST, it gets re-rendered and the sliders are updated.

I thought this was an issue with the VST, since other VST plugins do not show this behaviour in Renoise, but the folks at Surge Synthesize could not reproduce the issue in other DAW’s, so they thought it could be Renoise-related.

Does anyone else have this problem or know what might be causing this? I’m using Renoise Renoise 3.3.1 on Windows 10

Do you have checked “Pitchbend & controllers” option in Preferences → MIDI?
