another thought (this presumes mysql and I am not a mysql guru)

try running (host/user/database - adjust for your setup)

echo "select * from kronolith_events where event_alarm !=0;" \
| mysql horde -h localhost -u root -p

and see if you really have values for alarms in kronolith_events and
that an sql search will return them...
