condition:
  - "{{ state_attr('sun.sun','elevation') <= (below_elevation | float)}}"
action:
  - service: light.turn_on
    target: !input "light_target"

4. Describe the bug and how to reproduce it: When I turn on the lights with the automation (see added blueprint) lights do not adjust. When I turn on the lights with the button on the lovelace card it works (mushroom cards)

5. Steps to reproduce the behavior: Turn on lights with automation and turn on lights manual.

6. Other I have no clue why it is not working since the blueprint is still using the service light.turn_on AL should intercept it. Also I saw the log is saying that the lights are manually controlled which isn't the case (100% sure) since I waited for the lights to turn on by the automation.

A other thought I had was changing the service from light.turn_on to adaptive_lighting.apply as in:

service: adaptive_lighting.apply
data:
  turn_on_lights: true
  lights:
    - light.woonkamer
  adapt_brightness: true
  adapt_color: true

Thanks for your time!

Not sure if it's the same problem, but I had the same problem with service actions, but once I switched to device actions, it worked.

[ybjlus]

I have the same issue, I think it's since the last update. My scenes are controlled through node red with a "light-turn on" command combined with brightness/color data.

After updating HA yesterday I've also been having a similar issue with 1 bulb (Tradfri LED2003G10) that refuses to adapt either via automation or from a light.turn_on service call.
