Override default on levels

Hey guys -

so for domains such as lights and fans where there are levels when setting devices to on - eg. 50% brightness or low/med/high, does anyone know if there is a way to override the default on level of a device when it is controlled through HASS? So for example, when my fan is turned on through frontend or alexa, it goes to high - which I personally find to be annoying.

You sure thatā€™s not your device? My devices remember previous brightness states. When I call turn on from alexa, she just turns them on at whatever brightness they were at when turned off unless i specify ā€˜to 100%ā€™.

EDIT:

to clarify, Iā€™m using alexa -> emulated hue -> hass

I donā€™t have any fans, but certainly for lights and volumes I get the same behaviour as @petro where if I switch something off, when I switch it back on it will be the same level unless specified otherwise.

I have fans and they behave the same way as lights.

What component are you using? Iā€™m wondering if perhaps this is related to that as mine always revert to 100% either way, I donā€™t want ā€œlast usedā€ - I want to set the default behavior

emulated hue controlling zwave devices. so the components are emulated_hue, and zwave.
