ZBT-2 Matter Thread Ikea Losing My Mind (lemmy.world)

I got the ZBT-2 and there is very little setup or instruction involved.

Plugged in its one and only cable to my pi5. It installed open border thread integration and matter integration.

It flashes blue seemingly at random.

I cannot get any of the IKEA Myggbett, Bilresa or whatever the sockets are called to connect.

I am sat at my ZBT-2, connected to Pi via USB C. Pi is on LAN. I am on wifi.

I get one of two failures

1 unable to connect, check device, reset, check pairing mode etc.

2 setup requires an open border thread controller and then I check and the integration is bugging out.

Please tell me where I am being an idiot

Can you share your bilresa sensors? I cannot figure out how to reliably cycle through all none based on two buttons

    I used this blueprint, it allows you to use the buttons for turning on and off, hold to increase/decrease brightness, double tap for full or minimum brightness.
    Getting the brightness to smoothly change upon holding the button was impossible for me to figure out on my own, this blueprint really saved me in that regard.

    The double tap changes colour temperature when you use the button connected directly to the lamp, which this blueprint unfortunately does not replicate for HA. I have yet to summon the courage to really go through the yaml and see if I can figure as much out for myself.
