simplesamlphp random session expiration

I have implemented simplesamlphp to accomplish SSO through Azure AD. All of the session config settings are the default values for simplesamlphp.

/*
     * This value is the duration of the session in seconds. Make sure that the time duration of
     * cookies both at the SP and the IdP exceeds this duration.
     */
    'session.duration' => 8 * (60 * 60), // 8 hours.

    /*
     * Sets the duration, in seconds, data should be stored in the datastore. As the data store is used for
     * login and logout requests, this option will control the maximum time these operations can take.
     * The default is 4 hours (4*60*60) seconds, which should be more than enough for these operations.
     */
    'session.datastore.timeout' => (4 * 60 * 60), // 4 hours

    /*
     * Sets the duration, in seconds, auth state should be stored.
     */
    'session.state.timeout' => (60 * 60), // 1 hour

    /*
     * Option to override the default settings for the session cookie name
     */
    'session.cookie.name' => 'SimpleSAMLSessionID',

    /*
     * Expiration time for the session cookie, in seconds.
     *
     * Defaults to 0, which means that the cookie expires when the browser is closed.
     *
     * Example:
     *  'session.cookie.lifetime' => 30*60,
     */
    'session.cookie.lifetime' => 0,

Yet my site will seemingly redirect for re-authentication at random time intervals. It has occurred in under an hour since login, as well as last longer than an hour from login. Any input on why this is happening or how I can get it to a set time period would be much appreciated
