It appears that the light group platform is no longer registering entity ids in the backend.
See edit #3 at the end.

Developer Tools / States:
I noticed this because of the error:
However the strangest part is that the entities are available in the frontend:
EDIT: This is really screwy. After displaying them in the front end they now appear in Developer Tools / States.
Going to restart and see if they disappear again.
EDIT2: Nope. Can’t reproduce it.
I am still getting the error, despite the fact that the entity exists. (I did ctrl+F5, entity light.all_lounge_lights was still visible in the developer tools).
EDIT3: Found the culprit.
Calling the service lifx.effect_stop on a light group (even if it only contains lifx lights). Calling the service on a plain old vanilla group of lifx lights does work. Apologies for the false alarm.
