PMSET for power on the macbook it's not working

Hey guys! I have a Macbook Pro 2019 i9. It's connected to my Apple Display. I've changed the setup in my home office and I'm using the Macbook in clamshell in my bookshelf. I'm used to shutting down at night, but in the morning I need to bend down, unplug the cables, open the MB, and turn it on manually. So I tried to use the pmset command wakeorpoweron in the terminal to turn on the computer at 06:30. But it didn't work. When I hit -g sched I can confirm that it's programmed. But it's not turning on. What can I do to make it work?

MacBook Pro 16″, macOS 14.3

Did you try the keyboard shortcuts for resetting the System Management Controller

Reset the SMC of your Mac - Apple Support



for single command with no shut down specified, alternative ex

sudo pmset repeat poweron MTWRFSU 6:30:00
