So i got an ikea on/off switch, i i have it connected via zigbee2mqtt, it says there is newer firmware, but when i try to update to it, it doesn't do anything, i tried pressing the buttons on it while updating, because the zigbee2mqtt documentation for the switch said that but it still doesn't update

I just updated my on/off switches and fyrtur shades last week (also running on a Pi). For the switches, I clicked a button on them yo make sure they were awake and then ran to my computer to initiate the update immediately and it worked. The "update initiated pass/fail" message should appear in a small pop-up card on the upper right of the Z2M window before disappearing a few seconds later.

What I haven't been able to update is the open/close switches no matter what I've tried.
