Running zigbee2mqtt version 1.7
I was able to pair the remote control exactly as described and received the following output in the logs (debug mode)

After that, whenever I push any of the buttons on the remote I get… nothing at all.
Is there a required firmware version necessary for these ikea remotes?
Not sure what else to try since I get zero activity in the debug logs.
