Automation at wits end

Configuration
1

Hey guys,
Can anyone spot the issue with the below automation? I can trigger it manually but it will not trigger on it’s own. (running on Hass.io)

- id: '1530827609534'
  alias: Sunsetlights are on
  trigger:
      - entity_id: group.everyone
        from: not_home
        platform: state
        to: home
      - event: sunset
        offset: -00:45:00
        platform: sun
      condition: 
        condition: and
        conditions:
          - condition: sun
            after: sunset
          - condition: state
            entity_id: group.everyone
            state: home
      action:
      - entity_id: group.sunset_lights
        service: light.turn_on
      - entity_id: script.kitbench
        service: script.turn_on
      - data:
          message: Nighttime lights are now on
        entity_id: media_player.living_room_speaker
        service: tts.google_say

It trigger 45 mins before sunset but the condition will always fail as it will never be after sunset when it triggers.
