I’m seeing the same thing (constantly “checking status” in the new app) with the virtual child devices for default level, notifications, etc… These child devices display fine in the old app; it’s the new one that is confused about getting status. I rubber if this is a behavior change that has something do with the new do new firmware Samsung will be pushing out starting Monday
EDIT: looks like there’s already a thread about this. I wonder what Samsung broke this time…
