Lack of movement from sensor not firing automation or script

I’m almost a complete newbie but normally I can figure things out for myself by looking through the forum, but this time I just can’t figure out why this is not working.
I have a xiaomi motion sensor, connected to HA via Deconz.
I want stuff to happen after 10 minutes of inactivity, so have written this, in a package:

automation:
  - alias: no presence in dining room
    trigger:   
      - platform: state
        entity_id: binary_sensor.presence_15
        to: 'off'
        for:
          minutes: 10
    action:
      service: script.no_one_in_dining_room
script:
  no_one_in_dining_room:
    sequence:
      - service: notify.mobile_app_pixel_3
        data: 
          title: "Dining Room Presence"
          message: "No one detected in the dining room for a while"

Note that I’ve simplified the automation and the script to the bare bones here, trying to rule out possibilities, once I’ve got this working it will hopefully do a lot more, hence the use of a script.

I’ve confirmed that the sensor has been off for more than 10 minutes:

What am I missing?
