Moving average filter not behaving as expected

I have added an entity that should be the 12-hour moving average of the outside temperature:

  - platform: filter
    name: Gedämpfte Aussentemperatur
    entity_id: sensor.temperatur_aussen
    filters:
      - filter: time_simple_moving_average
        window_size: 12:00

However what I get isn’t anywhere close to the moving average:

The green/blue line is the original sensor values, the red one the filtered one. As you can see it’s almost exactly following the original values, there is no averaging over the last 12 hours. Is this a bug or did I configure (or understand) the filter wrong?
