The only way to clear it is to restart the gateway unfortunately.

There was a change in 8.1.20 ([changelog](https://forum.inductiveautomation.com/t/nightly-8-1-changelogs-2022/54636/116)) that should have resolved this issue.

Are you able to consistently replicate it in 8.1.24? Does it have to do with designer sessions disconnecting as noted in that release note?
