Skydrive app and updating shared documents...

So my wife and I use Skydrive/Office quite a bit, syncs nicely between the desktop, web app, my Windows Phone, and today I added her iPod Touch to the list.

Seems nice, but I created a document in my account, shared it to hers, and let things update. Shows fine first time viewing, but it just will not update after that. Can swipe down, see the file modified time change, but the displayed file doesn't change. Updates fine on both of our accounts otherwise, even tried editing in her via the web and saving but that didn't work.'

Only way I got it to refresh was by signing out and signing back in on her iPod...which is a no go for WAF of course.

update while typing: made a slight change to document...doesn't update in the Shared section of the app, but did when accessed from the Recent section. Ugh...lol.

Anyone ever run into this or find a workaround? Is it just slow to dump the cached documents?
