Not all Hue bulbs support effects. And affects aren't saved with scenes

OK, so I have been making scenes again using the Lovelace interface. And I notice something interesting.

One theme I’m working on is “torches”. Basically a very warm orange/yellow at full brightness on a select few lights. Fire and hot coals animations on my LED strips, and the Hue “fire” effect on the rest of the bulbs, to simulate a house lit completely by torchlight.

But I noticed 2 things in the process:

  1. I’d say only half of my hue bulbs give me the option to set an effect at all.
  2. When I save the scene and fire it up, the LED strips switch to the proper effect, but the Hue bulbs just jump right to a solid color, even if they were configured for an effect.

Is there something I’m missing, or did I just dip my foot in during a wave of development or changes?

Im having the same issue. Did you ever resolve it?
