I just got a Hue bridge and connected my hue devices thru the hub instead. I use Philips hue app and can add them to homey just fine.

But the motion sensor I connected thru the hub is not recognized as a motion sensor by homey. It has the right symbol but it doesn’t trigger my flows triggered by ”motion alarm” and it doesn’t show up as a sensor in Heimdall.  
Tried readding it to homey but still no luck. Anyone experienced this?
