Scene adjustments do not save

Configuration
1

I’m trying to add a new light to an existing Scene but it doesn’t save. The light entity is added, the state (on/off and brightness) is correct, yet clicking Save doesn’t actually save the changes. Calling the scene does not yield the expected results. I have called Scene.reload and restarted HA to no avail.

Next time I open the Scene in editor, the entity is still added but the state is not.

I do see the proper entity and proper state in scenes.yaml, but when called via any method, it calls the old state. I have quadruple checked that I call the correct one.

Also, sometimes the Save button doesn’t appear at all despite me making changes.

Nothing pertinent in full log. HA 2023.8.3. Any tips? Thanks.

This is the scene. The light.triones_121522000353 entity never turns on when calling this Scene, yet controlling it manually always works.

Hey!

I seem to have the same or a similar problem.

I’ve worked with scenes for many years now. But a few days ago the state of the lamps I add to my already existing lamp scene is not saved. The lamp state is always off, even if I set them to a brightness and save the scene.

In the scenes.yaml file the correct state and brightness is saved, but not when opening or triggering the scene.

Did you ever find a solution to this problem?

Cheers!

Hi,
A new guy here, experiencing the same thing with saving a scene edit. In my case it seems especially white temperature, changes could not be saved. In certain lights…
Did you guys solved this issues or maybe is there a work-around?
My plan now is to delete the 2 (LifX mini bulb, Aqara T1 light strip) devices in every scene that couldn’t be changed. Then set the light manually exactly as needed and add it to scene (again). Hope this works

Deleting and adding in the right setting to the scene didn’t work…
Work around: I made helpers for each lightsetting, transferred them to HomeKit and let them trigger HK scenes with colortemp settings. Feels sort of clumsy that I have to use HK for this, but it works
