XL 6.4.0 dimming no longer functioning

As stated in the title, I noticed the light bar dimming no longer works since the firmware update. I own two XLs, and as of 6.4.0 Alpha, I noticed that my test printer stopped dimming while the stable release printer continued to dim fine. With the toolhead crashes I feel back to the stable release, dimming kicked back in. Since updating both to the new stable 6.4.0 firmware version, dimming doesn't seem to occur on either printer any longer... They remain static throughout, no matter the status of the printer.

I have followed this into the settings menu on both printers and disabled it and then re-enabled it, but there's never any change in brightness. Figured it might be an easy thing for most people to miss, but I sleep next to both my printers basically. They're in the next room and I work a mid day shift anyway, some Im regularly staring at the printers in the dark. Hah.

RE:

Same Thing here. Won't dim after update.

But  I got the Function back after:

1. Switching Printer off and keep it off as long as PrusaConnect recognized it.

2. Changed the (default?) 40% Dim-Ratio to 25%.

Now it dim as always...

But what did I do?

Guess you turned the Printer off...
