Streaming API connections using OAuth

I’m unable to subscribe to topics using OAuth based connections unless I perform a query first.

The following code never gets a message:

var salesforceConnection = new jsforce.Connection({
    instanceUrl: salesforceInstanceUrl,
    oauth2: {
        clientId: salesforceClientId,
        clientSecret: salesforceClientSecret,
        loginUrl: salesforceLoginUrl
    },
    refreshToken: salesforceRefreshToken
});

salesforceConnection.streaming.topic('Topic').subscribe(function(message) {
    console.log(message);
});

The following is my workaround:

var salesforceConnection = new jsforce.Connection({
    instanceUrl: salesforceInstanceUrl,
    oauth2: {
        clientId: salesforceClientId,
        clientSecret: salesforceClientSecret,
        loginUrl: salesforceLoginUrl
    },
    refreshToken: salesforceRefreshToken
});

salesforceConnection.describe('Custom__c', function() {
    salesforceConnection.streaming.topic('Topic').subscribe(function(message) {
        console.log(message);
    });
});

@stomita I am facing the same issue . I am not able to get the events . Can we subscribe to topics and does jsforce refreshes its token automatically for streaming apis. @freshlogic is there any latest update on this ?

@stomita @freshlogic Does auto-refresh and auto-reconnect of dropped streaming client connections are supported?
