Fujitsu unit working except when off

Steps to Reproduce

1. Setup SmartIR for code 1293.json
2. Try operating the unit with HA
3. Nothing happens
4. Manually turn the unit on
5. Try operating the unit with HA
6. Everything works

Additional Context

I have a Fujitsu ASMG18CMCA which is not technically supported by the codes in 1293.json. However, when the unit is turned on, everything works perfectly. Only turning the unit ON via HA never works.

I am not sure how to figure out the fix for this. Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.

Does this remote file work for you?

Fujitsus have this peculiarity where the control string for every function is sent for any button press on the remote. But for some odd reason, the "on" bit is only sent when the power button on the remote is turning the unit on.

The remote file above always sends the "on" bit.
