I have tried this on the main timeline, and in a document class, but GC

There is no set time when it will run. It runs when Flash thinks that it would be a good idea. The exact time is left intentionally unspecified so that they can change their minds if needed. There isn't even a guarantee that garbage collection will ever collect eligible objects.
