I believe this affects the aws_kms_key resource as well. The docs for CreateKey states:

To create a KMS key in an external key store, use the Origin parameter with a value of EXTERNAL_KEY_STORE and an XksKeyId parameter that identifies an existing external key.

So to actually be able to create keys using the external store these parameters would need to be added on the aws_kms_key resource.

Thanks for flagging this @albgus. I'll update the PR accordingly.
