iOS iPhone Simulator 5.0 EKAlarm not working

Question

I'm working on a calendar app and when I add an alarm ( EKAlarm) to my EKEvent using either an absolute date or a relative offset the alarm/reminder doesn't fire on the simulator. Am I missing something, is it suppose to work on the simulator? I searched and did not find anything that says anything to the contrary. I am able to create UILocalNotifications and that works fine, I get the alerts/notifications for that in the simulator.

Am I missing something? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Unfortunately there is no calendar app in the simulator so it won't work as expected. You will need to test on an actual device.
