ok so this may fix itself if I get the initial packages updated to 0.11.18

If that doesn't work, can you have a look at whether it resolves itself after the cooldown period expires (1 minute)?

it doesnt, I have to bounce osqueryd

And then it resolves?

Let it sit for 10 min before restarting it

Interesting. I wonder what changes on restart?

not sure. still trying to figure it out. Seeing alot of these:
