cannot read seatbelt switch through simconnect with 'CABIN SEATBELTS ALERT SWITCH', works in the vanilla A320

To Reproduce

in python (need to install simconnect) sm = SimConnect() aq = AircraftRequests(sm, _time=0) sleep(2) #wait for sim connect beacon = aq.get('LIGHT_BEACON') print('beacon light = ',beacon) #-->this works seatbelt = aq.get('CABIN_SEATBELTS_ALERT_SWITCH') print('Seatbelt sign = ',seatbelt ) #-->no joy

Expected behavior

should change from False to True depending on switch position

Actual behavior

always reads False

Was this working before/when did the issue start occurring? don't know, just used now

Is this a problem in the vanilla unmodded game? works in the vanilla A320

This is the simvar used by us L:XMLVAR_SWITCH_OVHD_INTLT_SEATBELT_Position.

Not sure if this is appropriate to be discussed on github, you might want to hop onto our discord server.
