How to trigger the select 'change' event if the value is changed programmatically (not by clicking in the select)

We have a requirement where we change the select value programmatically from another component, but the 'change' event on the targeted select never fires.. neither does 'focus' or 'blur' or on input change'.. so how do we detect that this select has 'changed'?

Hey @peter.b!

Would you be able to share how you're setting the value of the select?
