How to debug message filter problems? Filter dropping message for unknown reason

edit

I have a simulated camera in Gazebo and want to use the point cloud of the camera for MoveIt2s Octomap. The points are getting published on the topic Canon_Powershot_G7_MKIII/points with the reference frame being Canon_Powershot_G7_MKIII_virtual_frame_link.

Example message:

The TF tree is also set properly.

The octomap_updater_config of the move_group_node is:

# Camera setup
    camera_configuration = load_yaml(
        "modproft_camera_description", "config/canon_powershot_g7_mk3.yaml")

    if prefix:
        # camera_name = ''.join([prefix, str(camera_configuration["camera"]["sensor"]["name"])])
        camera_name = str(camera_configuration["camera"]["sensor"]["name"])
    else:
        camera_name = str(camera_configuration["camera"]["sensor"]["name"])

    octomap_updater_config = {
        "sensors": [camera_name],
        camera_name: {
            "sensor_plugin": "occupancy_map_monitor/PointCloudOctomapUpdater",
            "point_cloud_topic": "/{}".format('/'.join([camera_name, "points"])),
            "max_range": 5.0,

        }
    }
camera_link_virtual = "{}{}".format(camera_name, '_virtual_frame_link')

    octomap_config = {"octomap_frame": camera_link_virtual,
                      "octomap_resolution": 0.05,
                      "max_range": 5.0}

    # Start the actual move_group node/action server
    move_group_node = Node(
        package="moveit_ros_move_group",
        executable="move_group",
        output="screen",
        parameters=[
            robot_description,
            robot_description_semantic,
            robot_description_kinematics,
            ompl_planning_pipeline_config,

            octomap_updater_config,
            {"use_sim_time": use_sim_time,
             "verbose": False}
        ],
        arguments=['--ros-args', '--log-level', 'debug']
    )

tf_monitor also yields a result:
