The solution under Tasker 5.5 …

Go to three dots/Preferences/Monitor
Set Use Reliable Alarms to Always

I ran tests multiple times changing the time for the trigger. As instructed in the documentation I always disabled the profile before changing the time and then enabled it again.

Sometimes the test worked and sometimes it didn't. Experimenting I found that if I did a power off/power on after changing the time it ALWAYS worked.
