Thanks for the info, I'll see if I can get my HA setup working a little better.
I was able to get a toggle button on my dashboard to turn this off and on. Thanks for sharing your code. automation.turn_on
and automation.turn_off
are the key to controlling this.

To give credit where credit is due, I "stole" this from https://gist.github.com/dglaude/619a9e415e1e34019a6b1f5f274e0d14?permalink_comment_id=3668660#gistcomment-3668660 and made it into a blueprint @ https://community.home-assistant.io/t/color-loop-effect-for-any-light-with-color-wheel-selector/389343.
To answer your question, your assumption is correct, I use following convoluted method to control both at once (I think triggering automation is enough, the template and script are to make the button on HA dashboard follow the color of the light as if it was pointing to an actual light).
automation
lightstrip_helper
script
lightstrip_Switch_helper
:template switch defined in
switch.yaml
(assuming split ha config)I think the script could be omitted, but iirc I couldn't find out the syntax to trigger the automation directly form the template switch and since it's been working reliably I promptly forgot about it.
edit: The way it works iirc is the template switch automatically calls the script whenever the actual light switch turns off or on, I don't remember why I didn't just do it with another automation with the light state as trigger, iirc had to do something with the button icon reflecting the color light.
