CurVe template \subrubric does not reset the year

Question

Below is the snippet from the CurVe CV template. In the below image, I want the year to show for Poster too. I expected \subrubric to reset the year, but it did not do so. How do I get a year entry for "Poster title 1".

\begin{rubric}{Conferences}
\subrubric{Talk}
\entry*[2022]%
    \textbf{Talk title 1}
    \par Institute.
    \par Talk on "Title"
\subrubric{Poster}
\entry*[2022]%
    \textbf{Poster title 1}
    \par Institute.
    \par Poster on "Title"

First edit

Tried the suggestion by @DaiBowen. It gives the error "Misplaced \noalign." The alignment is a bit off b/w 2022 and 2020.

This is being triggered by the curve class option skipsamekey which avoids repeating a key if it matches the previous key. This is not the default of curve and can be disabled by omitting the skipsamekey. However, the curveball is that the previous key is remembered across different \subrubrics, apparently without any interface to change this behaviour.

On a local basis we can prevent any entry's key being skipped by putting

\makeatletter
\gdef\@previouskey{}
\makeatother

so it will issue a key even if it matches. For the first \entry under a \subrubric this should go before the \subrubric or it may need to be inserted as

\noalign{\makeatletter
\gdef\@previouskey{}
\makeatother}

We can also patch the \subrubric command to always reset the \@previouskey automatically by putting

\patchcmd{\subrubric}{\gdef\@nextentry{}}{\gdef\@nextentry{}\gdef\@previouskey{}}{}{}

in the preamble.

As one subrubric ending on the same key as the next starts is relatively unlikely, it might make sense to stick to manually clearing \@previouskey as necessary rather than relying on patching another macro.
