Crossplane - Metal Vlan description not updated in UI

When editing an existing Metal Vlan resource's spec to add a description, the string is applied to the managed resource but is not updated in the UI. If the description is included in the original Vlan resource spec during creation, the UI shows the description. 

apiVersion: metal.equinix.jet.crossplane.io/v1alpha1
kind: Vlan
metadata:
  name: myvlan1
spec:
  forProvider:
    description: |
      Dummy native VLAN for purposes of enabling tagging on the trunk port.
    projectId: <uuid>
    metro: sv

If the spec.forProvider.description is left out during the creation, then editing the resource and applying the change will not cause the description to show up in the UI. I'm not sure if this is expected or not.

I would also expect the description of the managed resource to be updated if it is added to the spec after creation.

Please open an issue for this in the community provider at https://github.com/crossplane-contrib/provider-jet-equinix/issues
