Modelling the probability that any one of a set of unseen events occurs

Modeling
1

I have a set of True/False observations. Each of those observations is the result of a process that generates a set of items, and yields True if any of those individual items is true. Which of the items that are in the set changes for each observation.

I have modelled this with something that looks like:

data {

  // Which sub_items were present for observation i:
  int<lower=0, upper=1> item_occurences[n_observations, n_items]
  ...
}

parameters {
  // Individual sub_item probabilities for each sub-item:
  real<lower=0, upper=1> item_probabilities[n_items]
}

model {
  real p;

  for (i in 1:n_observations) {

    // Probability that at least 1 item is true
    // i.e. probability that all items are not false
    // sub_items holds the individual success 
    // probabilities for each observation
    p = 1 - prod(1 - (item_occurences[i] .* item_probabilities));
 
    observation[i] ~ bernoulli(p);
  }
}

However, this is struggling (failing) to recover parameters in a simulation test.

Is there a better way to do this?
