Group Lights turn off after restart of HA. Bug?

Hello,

i have some light groups, for exmaple let’s take one of them

light:
  - platform: group     
    name: Group Light Bedroom
    entities:
      - light.bedroom_leftstar
      - light.bedroom_rightstar
      - light.bedroom_tablelamp   

i also have groups of sensors, for exmaple let’s take one of them

group:
  group_sensors_doors:
    name: Sensors Door Group
    entities:
      - binary_sensor.door_basement_contact
      - binary_sensor.door_entrance_contact 

I can not say after which update it starts (but as for me 2-3 updates ago), but now after restart i get all the light groups OFF, insipte of light members have ON.

  • As soon as i toggle one of members - light group turns to ON!
  • As soon i make RELOAD GROUPS - light group turns to ON!
  • As soon as is completely delete “group:” integration grom YAML and make restart - light group works as expectes is also turns to ON direct after restart!

So, what is the problem?

Few things that come to my mind:

  • Are you using, by chance, deconz? If so, perhaps groups are duplicated; one defined by you as light group and one created automatically in deconz?
  • Do you have any automations that uses this group? What are the triggers for this automations? I found it while working with my blinds controller, that restart was causing them to close, just because automation I used was using to: PowerOff trigger on Harmony Hub (with undefined from:). It was causing problem, since at the restart Harmony status was changing from undefined to PowerOff…

mirekmal I use no automations. Just node-red, no deconz. But in all cases it is impossible, that group is OFF while all members of group are ON…

I also have the same problem as you. Have you solved the problem?

No, did nothing…
