Smart bulbs don't dim when snoozing using sunrise alarm

jessflix
Community Member

I use the sunrise alarm and have it set to gradually turn on a smart bulb in the same room. This works for the initial alarm, and if I snooze by physically tapping the button it will dim the light back to what looks like 1% and then gradually brighten it before the (snoozed) alarm like it should. However if I snooze with voice, the light stays on at 100%. I can use voice to dim the light, but then it never brightens like it should for the snoozed alarm. This has occurred on more than one gen 2 hub so it I don't think resetting will help.

Hi jessflix,

 

Thanks for reaching out.

 

Could you please tell us what type of lights are you using? Also, before you experienced this, have you made any changes on your network? 

 

Before we try some steps, let's make sure that all your bulbs are updated on its latest firmware.

I'm using Wyze bulb color. The firmware is up-to-date. There haven't been any recent changes; this has been an ongoing issue.

Hi jessflix,

 

Thanks for responding. Have you already tried to perform a complete reset on your Google Nest speakers? If not, let's try that to see if this would make any changes on its behavior. 

 

Let us know how it goes.

This issue occurred on my previous Nest Hub as well as a brand new one. So it doesn't seem to be an issue with the hub.

Hi jessflix,

 

Thanks for trying the steps. Just to verify, can you control the bulbs using its own app?

Yes, I can, and I can turn them on and off and dim them, change color etc with Google Assistant/Home. The issue when snoozing with voice is what's broken.

Hi jessflix,

 

Thanks for the additional info. Can you check the location set on your device? Make sure that the address set on your home address is correct. 

 

By the way, just to verify, have you done performing a complete reset?

Yes, my location is set. Again, this is occurring on a brand new Nest Hub 2nd gen but also occurred on a previous hub. Therefore to me it sounds like a coding issue or an issue on the back end.
