Adaptive Lighting

Hi! I ran into #1233 myself (Adaptive Lighting 1.31.0, HA 2026.8.2, IKEA bulbs over Matter) and spent an evening digging into it. I think I found the cause, so here's a small patch. What I saw I set `autoreset_control_seconds` to 5 to test it, turned a light on, changed its colour temperature by hand and watched the `call_service` events. The `manual_control` flag was cleared exactly 5 seconds later - so the timer itself is fine - but no `light.turn_on` from AL followed. The light only changed at the next `interval` pass (90 s here), and then with the normal 45 s `transition`. So it took …

My setup is Adaptive Lighting with Zigbee2MQTT (most recent versions) and various models of Ikea Tradfri lamps controlled by HA automations. Some lamps seem to have default turn-on transitions set (not sure where they come from), some have defaults set in Z2M, some automations explicitly set transition times in `light.turn_on`, and AL has the `initial_transition` set to its default of 1 second. All of these transitions are ignored while AL is activated and lights turn on instantly to their target brightness. When I disable AL, all transitions are correctly applied. Here's an example log from …

Version information: 1.4.1 #### Description: I noticed when using lights in a zigbee group (using zigbee2mqtt + home assistant (in HAOS)) lights do not turn warm all the way (color_temp: 500) When adaptive lighting is adjusting the light group, it stops at color_temp: `454` with the following settings: When selecting individual lights they do go to a color_temp of `500`. My zigbee group: Why zigbee groups? In a Zigbee network, a group is a collection of endpoints, such as multiple lightbulbs. Zigbee uses group addressing to communicate with groups of endpoints belonging to a set of devices. …

I've had a lot of reliability problems with the tunable wifi bulbs. I found bulbs that allow you to adjust the color temperature with a traditional smart dimmer, which means I no longer have to rely on wifi. They work great, except the adaptive-lighting curve doesn't quite work right. Additionally, when the dimmer is set to a specific percentage, the bulbs flicker between warm and cool. A good way to support these would be to input the percentage where the cool/warm transition takes place (which adaptive lighting should avoid), and you could set two different curves on either side of the …

Nevermind, I'm a dummy! My Salt Lamp is plugged into a Leviton D23LP Smart Dimmer Plug which was working fine in AL as a Wi-Fi device which supported dimming. The problem began when I migrated it to Matter and I now see that the Matter device does NOT support dimming!
