What happened?

Weirdly everything is integrated in Google Home and I can set the brightness as I like but when I use Google Assistant I always get the respond that there are not dimmable Lamps avaiable. I can set the color and toggle the lamps no problem.

Your configuration

This is caused by the Matter Device Type. I have used "light" for all lights, and added the different features supported by the light entity. But I didn't know, that there are special matter device types for "dimmable light" or "light with color".

Google is more strict with those device types. You can see it in the app, but when controlled by voice commands, Google Assistant checks the device type before executing the command. And "lights" are not "dimmable" from that perspective.

I am currently working on a larger refactoring of the project. With that, I will fix this bug as well. But it will take me one or two weeks to do it.

Actually it's a duplicate of #91 . Closing this one to track it over there.
