I have an odd problem that just showed up recently. For some reason there’s a light.bathroom and a light.bathroom_2. Both are Philips Hue groups but only one actually controls my bathroom lights which are named ensuite_1, ensuite_2, ensuite_3, ensuite_4. The other one oddly controls 2 basement lights, and a bedroom lamp!!
But when I go into my Hue app I only have one room named bathroom. If I delete it, only 1 light.bathroom appears but it’s the weird one that controls the basement and night table bedroom lamp.
Anyone have odd behaviours with Philips Hue groups? Any advice how to clean up the hub for weird orphaned groups??
That’s right. I forgot about the cleanup. I guess it’s a good idea to run (even though the setup again will be a bit painful…HomeKit, Harmony, Alexa etc.) Thanks for the reminder. Let’s just hope this fixes it!
Worked like a charm. Actually it wasn’t as painful as I remember it in the past. Hue actually restores your rooms and lights! Thanks for the tip @rpitera
Yeah, I just upgraded from an old v1 hub to a v2 and the cleaning was part of the conversion process so I thought it might help. Glad it worked for you!
