Can't get generic thermostat to use filter sensor value

Hi all. I am trying to set up a generic thermostat using a filtered temperature sensor. The thermostat works fine if I configure it to use the sensor directly, but if I set target_sensor to a filter sensor, the value always shows as null. The filter sensor does show a good value on the History page. Can anyone see what I might be doing wrong in this config?

sensor:
        - platform: filter
          name: "Filtered Main Zone Temp"
          entity_id: sensor.living_room_temperature
          filters:
                  - filter: outlier
                    window_size: 10
                    radius: 3.0
                  - filter: lowpass
                    time_constant: 10
                    precision: 1

climate:
        - platform: generic_thermostat
          name: Main Zone
          heater: switch.main_heat_zone
          target_sensor: sensor.filtered_main_zone_temp
          target_temp: 63
          min_cycle_duration:
                  minutes: 1
          initial_hvac_mode: "heat"
          precision: 0.1
