I have built a tap tempo to sync three pedals together, one Strymon and two Normally Open pedals. I have rewired this thing multiple times and can't figure out what I'm doing wrong.

I've used 8 different Normally Open delays, and am testing the Strymon part of the tap tempo with both a Timeline and a Mobius.

My pedal successfully syncs all the NO pedals with each other in every combination, but both Strymons are always out of sync with the NO pedals. I have tried swapping the Sleeve and Ring wires to the opposite lugs on the momentary 3pdt switch from the Strymon jack, and syncing with just one other NO pedal, but no dice. I've attached my wiring diagram here. https://imgur.com/a/5YcvD

The Strymon site says the mobius and Timeline need an external tap switch that switches the TIP between the SLEEVE(ground or 0VDC) to the RING (5VDC), and it should work fine. I think that's what I've done here...

I've been emailing with Strymon support to see if there was something they could offer but we haven't gotten anywhere. Am I missing something obvious?

Question about tap tempo pedals: I know Strymon pedals and some others require TRS cables for their external tap tempos and therefore tap tempo pedals with a stereo 1/4" jack.
If I build a tap tempo pedal using a stereo jack instead of a mono jack, will that be compatible with any pedal including those that normally just take mono TS cables, or will it only work with Strymons and the like?
