Inconsistent behavior of birthday calendar settings

[q-wertz]

Steps to reproduce

As advised in #6562 (comment) I open a new ticket.
Not sure how/whether these things relate together and whether step 1-3 are a different issue independent of the other things.

1. Activate Groupware > Automatically generate a birthday calendar in the admin settings

2. Wait some time

3. Some users do still not see an automatically generated birthday calendar (maybe also I didn't wait long enough). E.g. I had i visible

   

4. Open calendar settings, birthday calendar is deactivated
   

5. Activate the birthday calendar in the Calendar settings (one has to wait some time till button is not lightened anymore)

6. The birthday calendar vanishes from Calendars list and one (shared by myself) appears in Shared calendars` category (as described in Birthday Calendar: Enabling adds calendar to the wrong list #6562
   

7. Reload page

8. Birthday calendar vanishes from Shared calendars and is again visible in Calendars category

9. In calendar settings Birthday calendar is deactivated again
   

Expected behavior

1. Activating the birthday calendar globally as admin activates the calendar for all users and also is reflected in the personal calendar app Calendar settings
2. The calendar does not jump between categories when reloading page
3. The calendar app Calendar settings option Birthday calendar reflects the true state
4. Maybe clarify in Administration Groupware settings what happens when the Admin activates the birthday calendar (is it impossible for users to activate the birthday calendar when it is globally deactivated? Is it automatically shown after activating the admin setting for all users or does it just give the possibility for users to activate it? ...)

Actual behavior

Inconsistent behavior as described in steps to reproduce.
