Occasionally, but often enough to be annoying, an automation I've set to turn on a few exterior lights, some spotlights and porch lights, at dusk, will change state to reflect being on, but they're not physically on. During this time, it's common to see one of my other exterior light states (my patio light, which isn't part of any automation) reflected as being on when it's not. I usually just need to tap each one to change their state to disabled (at which point nothing physical happens because they were already off), then tap them again to turn them on for good. This is quite frustrating, and if it happens when I'm out of town and I don't realize it, it just keeps them in an off state forever, even though the automation is meant to keep them turning on and off at dusk and at dawn. I run Insteon switches through Homebridge. Overall this setup was pretty solid aside from this particular dusk/dawn automation. Any ideas on what could be causing this problem?
