The same thing seems to be happening with resistors (both types) and lightbulbs (both types) on the lab screen in both studio and state. As with the battery, if the resistor or lightbulb is not selected when the sim is launched, it launches properly.
I'm also reproducing this by flipping the battery around and launching the sim in the lab screen.
@samreid this looks like a bug that can negatively impact the client's usage. I recommend we try fixing this before sending the client another version, but if that's not feasible it should be documented as a known bug.
@arouinfar can you reproduce this bug? I set up this case and saw that the value was transmitted properly:
@samreid you need to be on the lab screen.
Thanks, that helped me reproduce and correct the problem. Ready for next round of testing.
Can you please test/review this on master using phettest? Please close if it seems corrected.
Looks fixed on master.
Reopening as I managed to reproduce this in https://github.com/phetsims/qa/issues/774. It was seen with the bill, eraser, hand, and dog. It also happened in the intro screen as well as the lab screen. It could be seen if there was a circuit, or, more easily, if values were on.
This may also happen with the non-ohmic bulb at high resistance. The value in the gif bellow seems to stutter each time state is set before going to the correct value. (May be a bit hard to see in the gif)
Is there an uninstrumented property in the realistic bulb that has a correction step?
We agreed to move this to the 2nd milestone.
@matthew-blackman and I tested this behavior, we were able to recreate the buggy behavior on the dev version listed in https://github.com/phetsims/qa/issues/774, but not in the current state of master. @KatieWoe can you please double check on phettest? Please close if all is well.
Something froze the downstream sim while I was attempting to test this:
It seems to happen when trying to take the ammeter out of the toolbox
The non-ohmic bulb now seems to read 1000 ohms no matter what the current, making that aspect hard to test. The rest of the objects (dog, etc.) seem to be fixed.
I fixed the ammeter problem. I'm also seeing varying values in the non-ohmic bulb
Can you please specify how to reproduce the problem?
I was mixing up bulbs in my previous testing, sorry. The non-ohmic bulb looks ok.
@KatieWoe are there any remaining issues with the ohmic bulb, or can we close this issue?
I think this can be closed.

Problem description For https://github.com/phetsims/qa/issues/772 in the lab screen only:
In State: After building a circuit, clicking on the battery causes the voltage to change in the downstream sim. Changing the voltage in the upstream sim doesn't change the voltage in the downstream sim unless you are in the 100-120V range.
Steps to reproduce In State:
In Studio:
