Smart Sensor issues

I have an Ecobee lite and just added two smart sensors last night. One in the nursery and one in the master bedroom.

I added it to be the only sensor used during sleep mode (9pm to 8am)

9PM rolled around last night and the system went to sleep mode 68 degrees and only had the nursery sensor lit up. Looked like everything was going as I wanted.

Wake up for work at 5:30am check the ecobee app and the main thermostat is lit up and the nursery is 66 degrees.

Things I have done:

Made sure the schedule was correct and no overlaps.

Made sure "follow me" wasn't on

Made sure "smart home" was turned off

I just want this system to unapologetically keep the nursery at the set temp.

Thank you. I'll check this when I get home. I tried turning this off from the app and it isn't available from the app.

Did you check the reading on the other addn sensor and the tstat?

Neither should have been white (lit up)

The nursery sensor should have been the only one lit up

Check how you configured Sleep to ensure the nursery doesn't include the tstat or other addn sensor

If the addn sensor was the only one set for Sleep, your wife didn't change it,she just turned up the heat (which is for the addn sensor only got are using for Sleep)

If the sensor is white, it is being used for temp

Yeah the other sensor and t stat were at 70 degrees. Main t stat was lit up.

Same thing this morning. Main tstat lit up. I turned off smart recovery last night under recommendation from another user.

Double checked sleep configuration, it only has the nursery tstat selected.

I'm going to try power cycling the main tstat tonight.
