Wall switch module - 2nd module not working anymore #617

Open Damian-CHNL opened 3 weeks ago

Damian-CHNL commented 3 weeks ago

Dear Johan Since the recent update, the second input on the Philips Wall Switch Module isn't working anymore. Shorting the 2nd input on the physical device (with a switch) does not trigger the 2nd virtual module in your app anymore, but now wrongly triggers 1st module instead. Grateful for fixing this asap, as likely I am not the only unable to use the 2nd switch anymore. Thanks very much!

You aren’t the only one indeed. However, I never managed to get the second input to work at all. Only right after adding the device to Homey (pro 2023) both inputs are working, but as soon as you add the next device (wall switch), the second input stops doing what it should. With an earlier version of the app, I encountered the same issue as you do now, but this doesn’t seem to happen with the latest release from a couple of days ago. A fix would be greatly appreciated!

Small update on my experience with the Wall Switches. Apparently we got so used to the fact that the second buttons didn’t work, that we stopped using them at all. With Damian’s message in mind, I gave it a try today and, just like him, I noticed it acted like the first input was triggered when the second button is pressed. It is like that with all the Wall Switches I have that have a second input (most of them have just one input in use). Another peculiar thing I noticed is that (also since the last update) the first input doesn’t always trigger the flow. In my case, it is supposed to switch a group of lights on when they’re off or off when they’re on. This used to work fine, but now when I’ve switched the group of lights by using my phone via HomeKit, I now have to push twice to start the flow. When I only use the same switch, I only have to push once every time. It seems like somehow the current state of the lights are handled differently. @JohanBendz, hopefully this helps you find the solution!

Hi Christiaan, Johan. Thanks for the additional comment, Christiaan. I can confirm that both buttons worked flawlessly in the app since March this year (when I installed the device and app in my Homey Pro Early 2023). But it stopped working only with the most recent update, unfortunately. Is there a way to roll back the app version within Homey Pro? Or do we have to wait for a corrective update/patch from you Johan Bendz? Any help is much appreciated. Best, Damian.
