Binary Sensor - No logbook entries when used as an automation trigger

[NzKyle]

The problem

I recently added in a new automation based on the state of a binary motion sensor (setup via ESPHome) - when the automation is enabled the state changes of the binary sensor do not seem to be written to the logbook at all. As soon as I disable the automation the state changes are written to the log book without issue. I only added this automation in after the upgrade to 2024.2.1 so I'm uncertain if this does or doesn't work in previous versions.

Example YAML snippet

#The Automation that I was using: 
alias: Bedroom Motion - Fan Timer On
description: ""
trigger:
  - platform: state
    entity_id:
      - binary_sensor.motion_combined
    to: "on"
condition: []
action:
  - service: timer.start
    metadata: {}
    data: {}
    target:

mode: single

#My recorder setting from the configuration: 
recorder:
  db_url: mysql://[user]:[pass]@core-mariadb/homeassistant?charset=utf8mb4

Anything in the logs that might be useful for us?

I've had a poke around in the logs and there is nothing in there related to either the sensor or the recorder.

Did some additional investigation today (turned recorder debug logging on) - and it would appear that the recorder is receiving the state changes (when the automation is enabled):

2024-02-15 09:29:33.064 DEBUG (Recorder) [homeassistant.components.recorder.core] Processing task: <Event state_changed[L]: entity_id=binary_sensor.motion_combined, old_state=<state binary_sensor.motion_combined=off; device_class=motion, friendly_name=Motion Combined @ 2024-02-15T09:28:08.347349+13:00>, new_state=<state binary_sensor.motion_combined=on; device_class=motion, friendly_name=Motion Combined @ 2024-02-15T09:29:33.062634+13:00>>

But no data appears to be written to the database.

As of the 2024.3.1 update this appears to be working. I'll close this issue now.
