A recent change added an "is backend" check to the code very early on in the "boot up" process of the request. One "is backend" URL is the website CRON function. This stopped the plugin hooking various functions that did maintenance of the cache. One of those was the transition action that fires when a post goes from scheduled to publish.
That stopped scheduled posts from clearing the cache as the caching system was disabled when CRON jobs ran.
Fixes #38257
