Do not duplicate near-identical scenes with overlapping devices unless necessary.
Tools & Requirements
Step-by-Step Solution

Repair broken bindings
Rebind devices with stale or invalid scene references.
Run repeatability test

Scene reliability improves with periodic membership audits.
This issue almost always looks more complex than it is — the majority of cases trace back to a single setting, a stale credential, or a default that shipped wrong.
