I've not quite figured out the trigger for this, as daiquiri can certainly write to attributes of tango device that exist in the bliss db. Maybe it's only triggered on first write of an attribute and old_properties usually has a value?

If you try to set a property on the lima simulator bpm device you get:

Looking at https://gitlab.esrf.fr/bliss/bliss/-/blob/master/bliss/tango/db_access/beacon.py#L1102

properties = static.ConfigNode(device_node, key=["properties"])

ConfigNode does not accept a key kw arg: https://gitlab.esrf.fr/bliss/bliss/-/blob/c9a73209562845aa76e372318bdd7328a5cfa830/bliss/config/static.py#L321

Not sure what this was trying to achieve, but removing key=["properties"] seems to make things work.
