ZHA setup
I have 2 IKEA STYRBAR remotes (https://www.ikea.com/us/en/p/styrbar-remote-control-smart-white-80488370/). I updated to firmware 2.4.16, but this issue happened on the 1x firmware as well. When I try to pair this device and set it up in Home Assistant, it will become discoverable and add itself as normal...but when I press any buttons, the zha_event log shows nothing, as if the button press did not work. What I discovered, is that the remote added in home assistant, but it locked in and paired to my Zigbee light (RGB nightlight in this case https://3reality.com/product/multi-function-night-light/?srsltid=AfmBOoqf-t5PP0uWVztagND5lY3eRi8q8TM6Q38bPi4C17DqTbf1xctX). Pressing the IKEA remote buttons controlled all Zigbee lights nearby. I had to unplug every Zigbee light and pair the remote to Home Assistant again, and then it finally paired fully and allowed full functionality.
Why does this happen? Is this some quirk with this particular device? My Zigbee lights were not in pairing mode, and were TURNED OFF. Super confused why it would add itself to Home Assistant, but then grab onto a random Zigbee device and be stuck / paired to it for button controls.
