It already has 88 votes and is two-and-a-half years old. I don't think voting for it will make a difference at this stage.

In fact, the eight top-voted issues are at least five years old.

If Bamboo is set to detect new branches, it will poll Bitbucket Server every 5 minutes. If Bamboo is set to find new branches in any Source Code repository, it will try to make these calls. This functionality is different to the pull request notifications specific to the Bitbucket Server Application link.
