Event-based Triggers Not Toggling with Zigbee2MQTT (even with no states)

Configuration

ISSUE / PROBLEM:
After the update to Zigbee2MQTT 2.0 and transitioning to event-based automation triggers, the triggers are not toggling, even when nothing is entered in the states. This is only happening on some of my aqara buttons; others toggle normally.

SETUP:
RPi4
Aqara Wireless Mini Switch
Zigbee2MQTT v2.0.0-2
Core: 2025.1.0
Supervisor 2024.12.3
OS: 14.1

STEPS TAKEN:

  1. Read Using the new action events in Zigbee2MQTT 2.0
  2. Ensured there is nothing in the trigger From or To states
  3. Confirmed in Developer Tools → States, under the “filter” column that the button press is recognized with every click because the timestamp changes.
  4. Tried a couple different trigger scripts (see below); neither work. First, is the standard trigger that works for my other aqara buttons. Second, is stripped down (removing not_from).

QUESTION:
I’m at a loss. Any suggestions would be appreciated. I just want these aqara buttons to toggle the trigger appropriately.

TRIGGER YAML (ATTEMPT #1):


trigger: state
entity_id:
  - event.furnace_2_aqara_action
attribute: event_type
not_from: unavailable
enabled: true

TRIGGER YAML (ATTEMPT #2):


trigger: state
entity_id:
  - event.furnace_2_aqara_action
attribute: event_type
2

You need to remove the event_type attribute from your trigger, unfortunately. See (and vote for) this WTH for details.

Yep. That fixed it. Thank you @mundschenk-at!
