Comment (by boklm):

 I think that I have been able to reproduce this issue. It seems that
 "Check for Tor Browser update" is working correctly when the update
 download has not been started yet (and the browser does not know yet that
 an update is available). However, if the update has already been
 downloaded, and the browser is ready to restart to apply the update,
 "Check for Tor Browser update" is not working in that case.
