Org checks the file modification time to determine whether to republish a file or not. Due to the nature of /sym/links their modification date does not change if the directory entry they are pointing to changes. Maybe you could use hard links instead of symlinks if the files you are linking exist on the same hard disk partition. If this is not the case maybe using a command line tool that syncs the directories (e.g. rsync) could be an option (Cf. Manual, 13.1.2 Sources and destinations for files).
