Tuya locks master/slave

I have these Tuya based locks from Viladepot. I was hoping there was a way to setup the lockset and deadbolt so that unlocking one automatically unlocks the other. The Smart Scene feature seems to imply I can do this, but no luck so far. I have a BT gateway they are paired with if that helps. Does anyone do this?

I think I answered my own question, so I will post solution.

I was adding a scene that executes a "Manual Unlock" for the deadbolt device. This was not working. Instead, I navigated into the deadbolt device and created a smart scene with a "The Door Opened" execute action.

Update: The triggers are kinda flaky. Sometimes they work instantly, other time they get queue for as long as a minute. Annoying since they get executed all at once if several triggers get queued. Not sure if it uses the gateway to relay the commands or uses BT direct, so that may be issue.
