Should it work for views block shown on content page?

I created a views block display to be used on my home page. I tried to unset cache for the view and set a random seed of 10 sec.
My problem: the random order is only done once for ANONYMOUS users after clearing Drupal cache.
I have the following cache modules active:
- Internal Dynamic Page Cache
- Internal Page Cache

On the home page I have 5 other views blocks with cache enabled - theses should not regenerated on each page load!!

Should vieww random seed work for my block? Is my config wrong?

    Well, for anonymous users, the page caching is coming into play, which is why a new random order will only happen after a cache clear. The only way to more or less get around this, is probably some sort of (custom) ajax request which replaces that block for anonymous users, but that's completely out of scope for this module.
