#Scenes within Automations behaving strangely...

I’m hitting a frustrating issue when running automations. It appears when a scene is triggered within an automation. It looks like instead of just setting one scene it actually cycles through every scene that I’ve set up in HA.

The automation is set to trigger on a Dummy button press.
It checks if a relevant outlet plug is on before attempting to apply the scene (the plug powers a large transformer for addressable LEDs run on WLED).

Once it’s determined the plug is on it will wait for a period then apply the scene.

There are quite a few zigbee bulbs in the scene, not just the WLED controller.

When I run the automation I can see all the lights changing through multiple states rather than heading directly to the chosen scene. If I just apply the scene (not using an automation) it works as expected. But I need to run the automation to verify the plug outlet state and allow a pause to allow WLED to connect to the wifi.
