I'm having an ongoing problem with a GE Dimmer turing off at an elarlier time . It controls sopme outsode lights on at sunset off at sunrise, I had this issue before and as I found a routine in echo and disabbled it and its seemed to work until now.
It turns at Sunset but turned off at 9:22 last night ..some nights it does work and stays on until Sunrise. The logs for the actual dimmer show it stayed on until Sunrise.

Here are the logs for 9:22 it doesn't show anything
I have basic that controls the Doimer and two othe outside fixtuures via intalled bulbs and they work fine..
Any ideas.
Check the device Events tab for an authoritative source, although it looks like you have descriptionText logging enabled and it should show the same -- but this will tell you for sure.
This page shows both events and commands. Either is helpful to know, but commands (not events; the difference is explained in the doc above) in particular would be helpful if you think the hub is doing something. If you don't see something here like "command-off" (or maybe "command-setLevel", though you can't tell if the value was 0, which is the only one that might do this), then this didn't come from the hub. Any app that sends a command will get an entry here.
And if it's not the hub, it must be something else: a physical press of the paddle (would probably also register an event, but may not if your dimmer is very old), a hardware problem, or something else.

That Alexa Routine may have been created by Alexa's Hunches feature. Did you disable Hunches within the Alexa App on your mobile phone? If not, it may have created another Routine or other Alexa feature that could be causing this. As @bertabcd1234 mentioned, it should be obvious from the Event tab for that device to determine what is messing with the switch at that time.
