Inovelli Dimmer in Smart Bulb Mode, how to get changes to the bulb back to the switch

Configuration

1

I’ve got an Inovelli red series dimmer in my daughter’s room and just installed some WiFi RGB bulbs. The dimmer is connected to Home Assistant via Zwave-js and the bulbs are connected via the Tuya integration. There are 4 WiFi bulbs and they are in a light group.

I have the dimmer in Smart Bulb mode and I’ve used the blueprint below to create an automation to control the lights from the switch. By itself, this works well and the lights turn on/off & dim from the switch and a double tap up sets brightness to 100% and resets the bulbs to white.

However, what I’m lacking is the ability to have changes to the bulbs reflected back to the switch. So if I turn on/off the bulbs or change the brightness via HA, the status of the switch doesn’t change. I created an automation to do this, but having both automations enabled seems to create loops and leads the overall control of the lights to be unreliable and unpredictable.

Any recommendation on how this can be solved so that the switch controls the bulbs and if the bulbs are changed via HA it is reflected in the switch?
