Zwave Insteon Scenes

I have a question on the way a scene acts that has an Insteon button of an 8 button switch and a Zooz ZEN 71 on/off switch. Both are controllers. When the Insteon button is pushed on the ZEN switch responds with an on and the opposite with an off. All good. But when the ZEN switch is turned on which shows up in the scene as on the Insteon button isn't turned on (lit up). I just assumed that the ZEN would also turn the scene on. I did a work around with a program that will turn the scene ON/OFF with the ZEN switch status. All works as I like but just curious about the scene control differences. I'm guessing that because there is no link between the Insteon and ZEN is the problem. I just thought that the ISY would turn on the scene between two different devices. 

Thanks Gary

Did you update the zen to turn on the insteon device within your scene as well?

I am guessing that your keypad button is one other than the primary, correct? It is my experience so far that mixed scenes having secondary keypad buttons do not work for the keypad buttons I think it has something to do with the fact that keypad buttons work only in scenes.  Unfortunately, a mixed scene does not appear to satisfy this requirement.
