Botkit: Slack Message Buttons with convo.ask

[joshio1]

Can anyone confirm whether convo.ask works with Slack message buttons as shown in this readme for interactive messages?
https://github.com/howdyai/botkit/blob/master/docs/readme-slack.md#message-buttons

I'm unable to get a callback to the pattern matching block after the buttons are clicked on Slack. I read that after clicking on the message button, both interactive_message_callback and message_received should be fired. However, only interactive_message_callback works in my case.

I have tried my code with the following repo: https://github.com/slackapi/easy-peasy-bot

Following is my code:

controller.hears('test', 'direct_message', function(bot, message) { 
    bot.startConversation(message, function(err, convo) {   
            convo.ask({
                attachments:[
                    {
                        title: 'Do you want to proceed?',
                        callback_id: '123',
                        attachment_type: 'default',
                        actions: [
                            {
                                "name":"yes",
                                "text": "Yes",
                                "value": "yes",
                                "type": "button",
                            },
                            {
                                "name":"no",
                                "text": "No",
                                "value": "no",
                                "type": "button",
                            }
                        ]
                    }
                ]
            },[
                {
                    pattern: "yes",
                    callback: function(reply, convo) {
                        convo.say('FABULOUS!');
                        convo.next();
                        // do something awesome here.
                    }
                },
                {
                    pattern: "no",
                    callback: function(reply, convo) {
                        convo.say('Too bad');
                        convo.next();
                    }
                },
                {
                    default: true,
                    callback: function(reply, convo) {
                        // do nothing
                    }
                }
            ]);
        });
});

Can anyone please tell me what could be the issue?

That easy peasy repro is pretty old, have you tried your code with the Botkit Starter Kit for slack?
