Pfsense Blocked IPs Disappear from Alias/Table After a While

I'm currently using pfSense version 2.7.2 and have installed CrowdSec version 1.6.9. The integration is mostly working , I’ve successfully customized a scenario and can see IPs being banned using cscli decisions list. These IPs are reflected in the corresponding tables. (pfctl -t crowdsec6_blacklists -T show pfctl -t crowdsec_blacklists -T show) However, after some time, the IPs disappear from the pfSense tables, even though I didn’t manually unblock them. There are no relevant error logs, and CrowdSec appears to continue running without issues. By running cscli decisions list I can see the banned ips, so I do not know why the tables are empty. Maybe a relevant log could be
time="2025-07-15T15:44:12+02:00" level=info msg="crowdsecurity/community-blocklist : added 10440 entries, deleted 10421 entries (alert:22)"
time="2025-07-15T15:44:12+02:00" level=info msg="Start pull from CrowdSec Central API (interval: 2h0m6s once, then 2h0m0s)"

Could this be an issue with the bouncer not syncing correctly over time? Also the pfSense Alias has no value on it to be used later. If I restart the service, it gets again the entries
