The [Virtual Devices](https://homey.app/en-us/app/com.arjankranenburg.virtual/Virtual-Devices/) virtual Knob / Button shows the same behaviour.  
Hitting the button in the ‘Devices’ screen shows a switching animation, but the flow isn’t triggered

When in the device settings, the flow gets triggered after hitting the button
