LZW-31SN flashes red, green, blue when turning off light

The RGB flashing is the switch rebooting when the bulb is powering off. This is occurring because the switch isn’t getting sufficient power from the non-neutral configuration. From your description, you are probably right on the edge of the minimum power requirements, and that drops during powering off.

This has been experience by a few here in the past. If my memory serves me correctly, some have resolved it by adding a 2nd bypass but others not.

You can test by temporarily swapping in an incandescent bulb. If that works properly, then it’s the power issue I described above. The power requirements for a LZW31-SN in a non-neutral configuration is a minimum 25W. Unfortunately, a most (if not all) Hue bulbs draw less than that. Maybe try a Hue bulb that draws more than the one you have presently installed.
