Bug in WebCore? Not updating Room lighting activator value

[dnickel]

I have been going in circles trying to get a bulb group to dim from WC.

I don't see an error in your logs you showed.

I am doing a Fade from 40% to 5% but the logs in WC indicates the level is already at 5%; HE shows the device is actually at 40%. The lights just turn off instead of executing the fade.
Or am I using this incorrectly?
