You wanted "udevadm trigger --action­d", to match the ACTION="add"
test in your rule.

udevadm trigger doesn't print anything useful, so that part is
expected.  Given that the NAME="..." is working for this rule, I have
no idea why RUN+="..." isn't working.

Have you looked for errors in the log output, e.g. in
/var/log/messages?  You might try running "udevadm control
--log-priority=info" first, to get more information logged.
