Laravel 5.2 not broadcasting events - events

Question

I've tried to broadcast event with pusher. But after a long hours of debugging I am still without a working solution.
Pusher works great, it's getting events from the debug console. Laravel is also firing the event. I also set up the queue and broadcasting configuration, but I noticed that my queue listener never getting any response.
This is my event listener:
<?php
namespace App\Listeners;
use App\Events\SomeEvent;
use Illuminate\Contracts\Queue\ShouldQueue;
class EventListener implements ShouldQueue
{
/**
* Create the event listener.
*
* #return void
*/
public function __construct()
{
}
/**
* Handle the event.
*
* #param SomeEvent $event
* #return void
*/
public function handle(SomeEvent $event)
{
//dd($event);
}
}
Routes:
Route::get('event', function () {
event(new App\Events\SomeEvent());
return "event fired";
});
Event file:
<?php
namespace App\Events;
use App\Events\Event;
use Illuminate\Queue\SerializesModels;
use Illuminate\Contracts\Broadcasting\ShouldBroadcast;
class SomeEvent extends Event implements ShouldBroadcast
{
use SerializesModels;
public $data;
public $x = 1111;
/**
* Create a new event instance.
*
* #return void
*/
public function __construct()
{
$this->data = array(
'power'=> '10'
);
}
/**
* Get the channels the event should be broadcast on.
*
* #return array
*/
public function broadcastOn()
{
return ['test_channel'];
}
}
Edit:
i reinstalled laravel and now the queue seems to respond and create row in the job table. but the pusher still dont recive any events from laravel.

Your App\Providers\EventServiceProvider needs to be made aware of the events and listeners.
protected $listen = [
App\Events\SomeEvent::class => [
App\Listeners\SomeListener::class,
],
];
These can be automatically populated by running php artisan event:generate.
