The way I solved this was by fixing the graph URLs contained in the serviceextinfo.

Just add "&end=now" to the icon_image...

icon_image dot.png' alt="" border="0"></a><A TARGET="_blank" HREF="graphs.cgi?host=localhost&service=Current Users"><img src="/nagios/cgi-bin/rrd2-system.cgi?host=localhost&service=Current Users&start=-5400&end=now&title=Actual&width=20&height=20&type=AVERAGE&only-graph=true"

If you're using nagiosGrapher to generate your extinfo files, then fix it up in ngraph.ncfg

icon_image_tag ' dot.png' alt="###ALT###" border="0"></a><A TARGET="_blank" HREF="graphs.cgi?###URL###"><img src="###IMAGESRC###" '
icon_image_script /nagios/cgi-bin/rrd2-system.cgi?###URL###&start=-5400&end=now&title=Actual&width=20&height=20&type=AVERAGE&only-graph=true
icon_image_static false

Hope this helps someone!
