count_over_time() query metric aggregator displaying unexpectedly in Grafana

[wcedmisten]

Describe the bug
count_over_time() does not aggregate over the range specified in the query, and instead shows individual spikes of value 1 for each log entry.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Started Loki 1.3.0 via loki-stack-0.31.1 helm chart
2. Started Promtail 1.3.0 to tail Python code being deployed in a kubernetes service
3. Query: count_over_time( {instance="mionlinewatcher-9f5bb9c45-m7p74"}[24h] |= "Successfully submitted task: recording-" )

Expected behavior
Graph shown in grafana has an increasing value, starting at 0 and resulting in a final value of 34.

Environment:

• Infrastructure: kubernetes
• Deployment tool: helm

We might have fixed this one after 1.3 can you try some more recent release and confirm if still unexpected please ?
