Here's the thing:  Just because Azura didn't want to give up her power to create Mundus, it doesn't follow that she doesn't care about the beings that were created as a result.

I like your theory that maybe Azura spins Oblivion (or Mundus) to make the sun move; I think it's explained in lore that the planet Nirn does spin, so that seems more likely. Or maybe because motion is relative the idea that Oblivion spins and Nirn stays still while the other planets and the moons spin, or that Nirn spins and Oblivion stays still and the planets and moons have their own unrelated spin, can be equally said to be true because the result is the same: a moving sun.
