device groups working in latest version (6.1)?

I use a couple of device groups for fans and air filters. All of the devices work fine individually, but I cannot turn the device group ON and have it toggle the fans on. if I turn a fan on then toggle the device group off, it will turn the single fan on.

individual device control works.
device group off works.
device group on does not turn on associated devices.

Am I doing something wrong? or did anything change with 6.1?

edit: I see this when i turn the device group on.

Z-Wave sent "air filter GR" off
Z-Wave sent "air filter MBR" off
Z-Wave sent "air filter movie" off

You saved the stored values for those devices when editing your group while they were turned off. Get everything set up as you want it to be when you hit the ON button then select the Interfaces->Virtual Devices->Update Device Group Saved States...menu item, select the group, and click Execute (this can also be done in the group's device config dialog by checking the "Update All" button and saving it).

[MODERATOR NOTE] moved to the appropriate forum.
