Hi Guys,

I am not able to add lights groups to my homekit integration, they will just not show in the app:

homekit:
  - filter:
      include_domains:
        - alarm_control_panel
      include_entities:
        - cover.ratgdov25i_1928fe_door
        - group.bedroom_lights
      include_entity_globs:
        - group.*_lights

group:


  bedroom_lights:
    name: Bedroom Lights
    entities:
      - light.bulb_9_light
      - light.bulb_10_light
      - light.bulb_11_light
      - switch.zplug2_switch

  doorway_lights:
    name: Doorway Lights
    entities:
      - light.bulb_4_light

  entry_lights:
    name: Entry Lights
    entities:
      - light.bulb_5_light

  laundry_lights:
    name: Laundry Lights
    entities:
      - light.bulb_6_light

  hallway_lights:
    name: Hallway Lights
    entities:
      - light.bulb_12_light
      - light.bulb_13_light
      - light.bulb_14_light

  garage_lights:
    name: Garage Lights
    entities:
      - switch.plug_6_switch

The only way to get it to work was to create light group and convert the switched to light here:
