Research direction

Start by loading the provided PoB build code and reproducing the issue with Spell Totem, Spark, and Mana Tempest enabled. Inspect the Calc Tab's In Combat calculation for Spark and trace how Mana Tempest is represented. Done means the buff contributes its numerical effect to DPS instead of appearing only as true.

What is the value from the calculation in-game?

The Skill "Mana Tempest" has no effect on the dps calculations within pob. Calc Tab shows Mana Tempest as an active buff when in combat but the value is only set to "true" but has no numerical value.
Also see attached screenshot and the provided PoB.
