Additional information

• Using "Scene: Activate" to revert to snapshot, I get no error, but the issue persists.
• Using "Scene: Apply" to revert to snapshot, I get this error, "Error: expected dict for dictionary value @ data['entities']", even though it is correct, and the issue persists.

Can you post the full logs

Can you post the full logs

After some research, this appears to be a related to #122165 . The logs show successful, but only the actual brightness appears to be reverting, not the color, which is the main issue in #122165 .

[SnowJackal]

Fixed along with #122165
