FigureWidget doesn't properly display a DateTime x-axis labels

šŸ“Š Plotly Python

Iā€™m using Jupyter Lab

I have a DateTime as the x-axis in a plot. If I use Figure() it renders the a-xais labels correctly. However, FigureWidget() renders as a very large integer. This issue also shows up in the hover box.
Does anyone else see this?

x = pd.date_range(start="20250303"+"000000", freq='5min', periods=288)

fig = go.FigureWidget() if useFigureWidget else go.Figure()

fig.update_layout(
    xaxis_title="hour", 
    hovermode="x unified",
    xaxis=dict(tickformat="%H")
)

for trace in df.columns:
    fig.add_trace(go.Scatter( 
        name=trace, 
        x=x, 
        y=df[trace],
        xhoverformat="%b %d %H:%M%", 
        hovertemplate="%{y:.f}",
   ))
