Time Automations do not trigger

Configuration
1

Absolutely any type of time automations are not running for my home assistant instance.
I tried all the debugging tricks in other forums.
Confirmed that the time zone is set correctly, and the time is correct.
I am running an instance in a virtual machine on UTM on a mac book mini (m1)
Any ideas of what I could try more?
I even tried an automation which spawned a notification every minute, that even didnt run.

Please share the code for one of your time Automations

Here is one that arms the Blink cameras at midnight. The same automation was working from my raspberry pi instance.

I face the same problem on a VM running on UTM (hardware = Mac mini Intel ship). Everything was ok until a few days. Now the time synchronisation between HA OS and the VM doesn’t work. It’s just like if time was paused (checked with a simple {{ now() }} ).
I upgraded MacOS from v14.x to 15.x but still face the problem. UTM version is 4.6.4 and I found an issue on Github which is related, but no official answer so far.
