I ran into this same issue.

I ran mas list and noticed an ID for a manually-installed App was missing (eg: 123456). I then ran mas info 123456 after which it started appearing in subsequent mas list runs (without a reboot).

Could you check next time, if mas outdated fixes it for you instead of reboot?

@StefanLobbenmeier Yes, today tested it again, it works, but not properly as excepted. Some apps shows other versions rather than latest App Store
