So I have a motion trigger according to below, my issue is that sometimes after the trigger that turns off all the lights has run, it takes some time before the entity for the Illuminance (Philips Hue Motion Sensor) to change that the Automation is rejected when motion occurs because the Illuminance value has not been refreshed since the lights turned off.
I haven’t looked too deep into how often the entity takes to update, but it happens few times a week where I go to the kitchen after it apparently just turned the lights off (10 seconds?) because it won’t turn the lights on, on those occurrences.
Surely someone brighter then myself has had this happen and come up with a solution or someone has an idea to take care of this from happening?
