Color Changes in actions via voice commands

[RichardHH]

Morning!

Short: Color change commands are not working when executed via GoogleAssistant but working with GoogleHome.

Replicate:

Routine/Action named "light test":

If i tap the "play" icon within the Google-Home App to start the routine containing the command (german):
"Setze <lampe> auf kerzenlicht"  (english "set <lamp/bulb> to candlelight"), the command will be executed fine.

If i SAY(!) "Ok goole, light test" it will not be executed by the home app since voice commands are processed by the Google-Assistant - and there (Assistant) the routine-execution will fail ("<lamp/bulb> wont support this function").

Also puttin a shortcut from within the home-app to the mobile desktop will result in the same behaviour as the action is then also executed via Google-Assistant.

So cleary the Assistant is the problem, not sending the correct command format for colour-change-actions to the bulb. GoogleHome is doing it right.

So THAT needs to be fixed so we all can trigger and colour-change functionality also via voice.

Thanks!

Richard

This issue is similar to this topic: https://www.googlenestcommunity.com/t5/Apps-Account/Google-home-no-longer-allows-changing-of-light-c...

I am having the exact same issue. Automations for turning on + changing light color work just fine in Google Home, but on Google Assistant it will just turn on and give me a "<lamp/bulb> wont support this function" error message.

Using a Tuya RGB led strip controller.

Hey Google! Can you please fix this sh*t asap? 

Ist really annoying and i want to switch from Alexa to Nest. 
I thought it might be in your interest to assure such stuff working well, so making a change from Amazon-Alexa to Google-nest easier?

So plz...after (soon) one year of remaining in inactive lethargy, it's bout dang time getting your a...up and fix this crap?

Tnx...

Edit:
After re-reading the original issue in this tread I see that I actually don't experience the same (as I thought before):

If I create a routine like the mentioned "light test" which executes a lamp color command via 'Try adding your own' it works fine both when pushing the play icon and via the voice command "light test"

If I change the routine "light test" not to use the 'Try adding your own' but the 'Adjust Home devices' and here use the color selector I get these results:

If the routine is a Household Routine (created via the Google Home App) it works if I push the play icon, but not when I use the command "light test"

If the routine is a Personal Routine it doesn't works neither if I push the play icon nor when I use the command "light test"

Since I noticed, that some colors do work - but only those, which also are recognized via Danish voice commands (in other words colors-names, that are recognized as English *and* Danish color names) i did the above tests with the color-names that aren't recognized in both Danish and English) (Example: 'candlelight' can't be used in Danish, but 'magenta' can be used in both Danish and English)
