This started maybe 6 or more months ago and I’ve adjusted some scripts to send multiple commands to get around it, but it is really annoying. Any ikea blind or switch I have always ignores the first command. If I send another command it responds, like the first command only woke it up and now it is ready to act on the second command. Honestly, some of my blinds respond so intermittently I have a notification pop up that allows me to repeat the command until it goes through.

I’m noticing it is interfering with other items on my zigbee network. Particularly some contact sensors that are placed close to an Ikea switch (which acts as a repeater) are unable to send their messages the first time through. I’ll have to open the door twice to get the command to run.

I thought it was just a bug that would be fixed and I have had a hard time finding any more information about it. Does anyone else experience this problem or have any suggestions? I’m using ZHA for my Zigbee.
