Zone Notification (from "home") Not Working

Configuration
1

Hello All -

I’m a Vera convert trying to slowly get my arms around HAAS as I believe this could be my new home (coupled with MSR).

I’m testing out Zones to find out how well HAAS will do with presence detection. I have to say that I’m impressed. It’s much more accurate than Vera and other plugins I’ve tried.

That said, I’m having issues with using the Zone Notification Blueprint (/config/blueprints/automation/homeassistant/notify_leaving_zone.yaml) when leaving my “Home Zone”. I’ve verified that it works from other Zones, however, such as one I have setup for Work. I read another thread with someone having this issue but no resolution.

Note I have a zone ring around my home for 2 miles in addition to the home zone. This will eventually trigger pre-arrival events, etc. Could it be confilcting?

trigger:
  platform: state
  entity_id: person.travis_bully
variables:
  zone_entity: zone.home
  zone_state: '{{ states[zone_entity].name }}'
  person_entity: person.travis_bully
  person_name: '{{ states[person_entity].name }}'
condition:
  condition: template
  value_template: >-
    {{ trigger.from_state.state == zone_state and trigger.to_state.state !=
    zone_state }}
action:
  - alias: Notify that a person has left the zone
    domain: mobile_app
    type: notify
    device_id: 8ecb6d336xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx8c798c
    message: '{{ person_name }} has left {{ zone_state }}'
id: '163xxxxxxxx619'
alias: Zone Leaving Notification

Possible log entry where the event takes place when I’m leaving home:
