Hello!
After a start from scratch (from home assistant Python virtual env to Home Assistant Supervised on generic Linux) I’m migrating a bunch of entities (tamplate fans, template sensors, lights and so on) to the new installation. The most part is running smoothly, but FAN is not working as expected because of a minor issue: when the FAN is on the icon is not turning yellow when on (like lights, binary sensors etc).
An screenshot is below.

The FAN is on (and is physically spining hehe), speed is LOW and direction is clockwise. But the fan icon is gray! Am I missing something? There isn’t any customisation, everything is quite “vanilla” (for now).
Just in case here is the FAN template describing “Centro Varanda”.
