Apple watch actions doesn't trigger automations

Configuration
1

Hi all,
I’m struggling with making my apple watch trigger automatins in HA.
info:
Home Assistant 2023.8.4
Supervisor 2023.08.1
Operating System 10.5
Frontend 20230802.1 - latest

apple watch version 10.0

I have two actions on my watch:
Garage toggle and open_door.
for the Garage toggle everything works fine - the autamation is working without any problem.
for the open_door, I can see it in the output of the event listener when I listen to ios.event_fired. if I trigger the automation manually from ha it’s working fine but for some reason the watch event doesn’t trigger the automation.
automation code:

- id: "open_garage_from_apple_watch"
  alias: "open garage from apple watch"
  trigger:
    - platform: event
      event_type: ios.action_fired
      event_data:
        actionName: "Garage toggle"
  action:
    - service: switch.toggle
      entity_id: switch.garage_door

- id: "open_front_door_from_watch"
  alias: "open front door from watch"
  trigger:
    - platform: event
      event_type: iso.action_fired
      event_data:
        action_name: "open_door"
  action:
    - service: lock.open
      entity_id: lock.core_mosquitto_front_door

example from event listener:
the event that works:

event_type: ios.action_fired
data:
  actionID: BB4D85C9-EA01-4212-B0FA-E07EA95E8A95
  actionName: Garage toggle
  sourceDeviceID: itais_iphone
  sourceDeviceName: itai’s iPhone
  sourceDevicePermanentID: *******
  triggerSource: watch
origin: REMOTE
time_fired: "2023-08-29T18:58:29.389417+00:00"
context:
  id: ********
  parent_id: null
  user_id: *******

the event that doesn’t work:

event_type: ios.action_fired
data:
  actionID: 274499D2-B78B-411D-9258-5C5946AD836F
  actionName: open_door
  sourceDeviceID: itais_iphone
  sourceDeviceName: itai’s iPhone
  sourceDevicePermanentID: *******
  triggerSource: watch
origin: REMOTE
time_fired: "2023-08-29T19:02:18.042462+00:00"
context:
  id: *******
  parent_id: null
  user_id: *******

thanks in advance!
