I just moved to a new house and installed my Homey again after 2 months. I tried to make a new flow with both a Hue tap dial and a Tradfri button where:
If button X is pressed
Then turn off TV.
It seems the button press is not registered for either device. I tried making pilot flows by “a button press will change a text logic”, or “turning of a light”, but nothing gets activated. I even hard resetted my homey (losing all automations sadly 😥 ) and re-adding all hardware, but even that does not help me on this topic.
Does anyone have a lead what I’m doing wrong? I’ve been building flows for a year now and never experienced this..
Thanks a bunch

Did you replace the battery in the remote? The battery indication in Homey is often inaccurate.

I did, yes

Did you try it while the button is right next to Homey? It might be a range issue.
