H61E5 Cob Strip lights and the RGBIC strip lights not showing in govee plugin

Support
1

I have the Govee H61E5 lights AKA the Cob Strips now they were showing up and working for a bit but now they can’t even be found.

I’ve gone through and have done basic trouble shooting from power cycles to more advanced stuff like my pfsense firewall. I can tell you multicast is working seems signal RGB will find the lights as a protected mcast address when they are in use by the govee desktop app obviously it must not be running for srgb to be able to reach them.

But with the lights free and not in use by anything it seems the govee plugin does not find the lights ast all and secondly manual IP does not work either.

Hmm upon looking at my firewall logs. I see Signal RGB is flooding my firewall with IPv6 mcast packets.
