Alert "Monitor Condition" never changes

We're starting our journey from SCOM to Azure Monitor and have run into an issue with Azure Alerts (sorry for posting this in Azure Log Analytics, but there is no Azure Monitor Tech Community).

 

I've noticed that when an Azure Alert is generated, that the Monitor Condition never changes from "Fired" to "Resolved". According to the documentation, the Monitor Condition, "Indicates whether the condition that created a metric alert has been resolved. Metric alert rules sample a particular metric at regular intervals. If the criteria in the alert rule is met, then a new alert is created with a condition of "fired." When the metric is sampled again, if the criteria is still met, then nothing happens. If the criteria is not met, then the condition of the alert is changed to "resolved." The next time that the criteria is met, another alert is created with a condition of "fired.""

Despite the condition no longer being met (for instance, a service down), the Monitor Condition never changes. Am I missing something?
