Light automation headache

Configuration
1

I have an ambient light for which I made automation that turns this on when:

  • My computer is active
  • And connected to the relevant AP (BSSID)
  • The sun is down
  • The light is currently off

The light is set to 100% if off for >=2h, otherwise it leaves the current brightness setting.

I also have automation that turns the light off when:

  • My computer is no longer active
  • If the light is on

This way, when I open up my macbook first time in the evening, the ambient light comes on at 100%. Later I might watch movies so I set the light to 25%. If I’d take a potty break, the light goes off and comes back on when I wake the computer, leaving the 25% setting since I got back within 2h.

Now to the problem. The automation to turn on the light triggers not only when the computer is first started, but occasionally throughout the evening while the computer is active (why?). The “light is currently off” condition fixes this somewhat, but if I turn the light off, it will soon come back on. If I turn it off, I don’t want it to automatically come on again due to this automation for the rest of that evening. If I however, just take a potty break (automation turns it off) I still want it to turn on.

Any ideas on beat solution?

My automation looks like this:
