I suppose it works, if you do :set modified? It's a known issue that it only works when setting the option directly and not by simply flipping the C state variables.

Is there a workaround that works with autocmd?

Not sure it can be backported to vim, but nvim made OptionSet work for modified: neovim/neovim#35610
