Homekit automations one hour wrong

Since launch of iOS 16 I have issues with HomeKit automations not triggering as expected. Especially time based triggers seems to work unreliable, often not triggering at all. Also, when creating a new time based automation, the default trigger time is one hour wrong. We recently ended daylight saving time here in Sweden so maybe it is connected to that? See screenshot below.


Other HomeKit functions such as turning on/off devices using phone or HomePod works as expected so it doesn’t seem to be related to communication problems to any of my HomeKit accessories. I’ve tried to change primary HomeKit hub by disconnecting my HomePods and appletv’s to have it switch to another device, but no luck. Any suggestions?

I am experiencing the same issue. This is a screen clip when creating a new time based automation. Note the default “time of day” one hour ahead. DST recognition is clearly broken in HomeKit.
