Problems with Aqara and Matter Bridge

I have a C8 linked with an M3 Matter Aqara Hub.
I have some motion sensors and contact sensors in Aqara and now I see them in my Hubitat environment.
I added a new FP1e and I spent hours in trying to see it in Hubitat...
In the end It worked.
Now I added a wireless mini switch and I cannot see it in Hubitat...
I think I miss something in the procedure...
What should I do after adding the new sensor in Aqara app?
How should I refresh the children exported to hubitat via matter bridge?
Thanks!

Tagging @bcopeland and @kkossev. These two are the brilliant folks who would probably know best how to answer this particular question!

Tryed multiple times...
does't work
I have to add that the switch is not connected directly to the M3 hub but to another camera hub that is in the cluster of hubs under the Aqara M3...
When I made the same thing with an Fp1e after a while I was able to see it in hubitat...
Now it doess not work.
I have to add other devices under the same hub so i'm trying to understand the problem...
If someone has any idea...

@mike.maxwell,
Please see comparison of system vs custom driver.
As you can see that the system driver has not picked up the mini switches and W600 TRV.

Ok now I have the same config you have...
But the system does not report button press, double press or hold...
Nothing...
It's your mini switch working in hubitat?

@luca1 at the moment, in the community driver, processing Aqara buttons may be possible using an Aqara-specific workaround β€” the so-called β€œsignals”:

My advice would be to wait a few more days. I’m currently working on adding proper Matter button handling to the driver.
