Issues with creating some lights from the switch platform

Configuration
1

I’m having a very weird issue. I have a bunch of Zooz light switches that are recognized and in Home Assistant. I’ve created a lights.yaml file to make lights out of those switches. It’s worked flawlessly for about 20 switches. The last four don’t create the coordianted lights, instead it creates “light.light”, “light.light_1”, etc. Sure I’m doing something stupid, but I can’t find the error.

Excerpt from lights.yaml:

 BACK OFFICE
- platform: switch
  entity_id: switch.fan_and_light_switch_back_office
- platform: switch
  entity_id: switch.closet_light_back_office

# MASTER BATHROOM
- platform: switch
  entity_id: switch.left_vanity_lights_master_bathroom
- platform: switch
  entity_id: switch.right_vanity_lights_master_bathroom

Everything above the Master Bathroom switches create the correct lights. The three master bathroom switches create the generic lights as I mentioned above. I’ve verified the entity_id’s are correct:

lights
lights1832×263 18.3 KB

creates:

lights2
lights21851×212 10.9 KB

Anyone see what I’m doing wrong? Pulling my hair out.

Thanks!
Jim

According to the documentation, you need to assign a name to your light.

name string (optional, default: Light Switch)

Perhaps you could show us one of the lights that work as you expect.

Thanks for your reply. I should have mentioned that I am setting the names in my customize.yaml file. Here are the examples, the “Master Bedroom” lines create the associated lights correctly. The “Master Bathroom” lines create the “light_1”, "light_2) incorrectly.

lights.yaml

  entity_id: switch.overhead_lights_scene_controller_master_bedroom
