Issues with setting _dte.Events.CommandEvents.BeforeExecute callback -it's not running.

I am having trouble even getting the InitalizeAysnc method to even run, break points are not getting hit. I assume this is why my custom code for BeforeExecute isn't running.

I have searched google and VSIX github repos to no end and can't figure this out.

Here is my latest attempt:
