Zigbee2MQTT direct binding - Hue Lamp does not report state changes to Dimmer? #21771

Configuration Zigbee
1

I have a Hue Lamp (Firmware 20230912) and a Hue Dimmer (Firmware 20210729) in my Home Assistant which are directly connected through “binding”. Hue Dimmer’s “Bind” settings look like this:

Problem: Everything works as expected when i control the light with Dimmer. But when I turn the light off within HomeAssistant, after that the first click on Dimmer’s On/Off Switch does not do anything, the second click turns the lights on. Appearently dimmer does not get status changes from the bulb.

On the Binding | Zigbee2MQTT it is written that the Philips Hue On/Off does not support state changes after Firmware 20170908, but it seems strange to me… I am not sure whether this is about my problem at all:

How can i change this? Thank you.

My Hue dimmers do this too (with ZHA). I think it’s because the dimmer is sleeping. If it is bound directly to the light on/off commands bypass Home Assistant altogether, so a first press is needed to wake it up, and a second to send the command.
