This might very well be the same as the rigid body workaround you've tried already, but if you're willing to accept the slight performance hit of having your static body be an always awake kinematic body instead then this should also work.

extends StaticBody3D

func _ready() -> void:
PhysicsServer3D.body_set_mode(self, PhysicsServer3D.BODY_MODE_KINEMATIC)
PhysicsServer3D.body_set_max_contacts_reported(self, 10)
PhysicsServer3D.body_set_state_sync_callback(self, _on_state_sync)

func _on_state_sync(state: PhysicsDirectBodyState3D) -> void:
if state.get_contact_count() > 0:
print("Contact!")
