[SOLVED] OpenHAB 2.5.0-M1 breaks Hue remote dimmer channel events

I’ve set it to Germany,German, Europe/Berlin now.

Event channel of Tap Switch and Hue Dimmer Switch are running, BUT:

Before my update to Snapshot 1728 EVERY press appeared, now only SOMETIMES appearing.

Example: tap_switch_event: When I press button 1 on Tap Switch event 34.0 should be triggered. Somtimes it’s triggered, somtimes not (depending on the former event) When I press button 1 again, nothing happens. Then I have to press button 3 and event 17.0 is now triggered. When I press button button 3 again, nothing happens, when I press button 1, then event 34.0 is triggered.
