I suspect someone could tell you a really good and nice way. But just to test if this is your problem, you could always try getting the view transform and resetting it with the same transform. That should trigger it.
Might be worth overriding postRender() on Canvas3D just to keep a track on when a re-render is actually happening. Sorry I can't be more help, don't have access to my stuff from here.
