This is a limitation of our current segment system. Whatever segment you define, Matomo will try to find exact visit/action, that matches the whole definition. And logically there can't be one action that matches two event action names. Therefor the result is empty. Logically it would be the same as segmenting for country = NZ and country = NL.
