This is a bug.  As a work around, you can use the animation script editor 
to update the probe module.

Find the probe module name with (command prompt)

vtkPVProbe ListInstances
vtkTemp533

Then call

vtkTemp533 AcceptCallback
as an animation script.

Of course, the vtkTemp533 will replaced by what ever your probe module is 
named.
