Trying to call a service - Google Assistant - from a button

I created a test grid with two cards for my dashboard. They both should perform the same function i.e. sending a command to my Google Assistant. The “area” card does it successfully, however the “button” card doesn’t work. What am I doing wrong or misunderstanding? Thanks for your help.

Have you tried removing the entity from the button card?

Yes. Same results.
