1.4.5 introduced a regression where some fetches of consumer metadata were nonblocking (i.e. used local state instead of making a network call) unless a network operation was performed at some point. Unfortunately there was a bug where if the metadata was empty, the code just assumed there was no data at all and did not make a blocking call to fetch any data.
I made a fix upstream (see dpkp#1781) but it hasn't been released yet (probably in 1.4.7). So we can just cherry-pick the change in our fork now.
