#Bad transitions between HA scenes with Zigbee2Mqtt Philips Hue

Hey! When applying a scene to my philips hue lights (connected via Zigbee2Mqtt), I've noticed that they seem to transition their brightness smoothly, and then, afterwards have a harsh jump in colour / colour temp, which looks quite jarring.

Previously I had them connected via a hue hub using hue scenes, and there the transitions were smooth, moving smoothly to the target hue and brightness simultaneously.

Is this something I can fix? I'm unsure if this is an issue with how Zigbee2Mqtt sends the messages, or if home assistant scenes just apply the hue and brightness as separate commands, or if this issue is somewhere else entirely.
Any help would be appreciated, many thanks!

I've found that using Zigbee scenes work much better, so that's what I'd suggest as a workaround. You can create them from the z2m frontend
