ESP32-C61 with light example, RGB LED does not light up` (CON-1871)

[olavt]

I have installed the latest version of the ESP Matter SDK (using IDF v5.5.1) and test the light example.

I can add the device to Apple Home and from there I can turn on / off the light etc., but the RGB LED of the ESP32-C61 is completely dark all the time.

Is this supposed to work, or are there known issues?

I get some "garbage" like this in the logs:

Yes, we didn't support led driver for esp32c61, we current use the led_strip 1.0.0 version as the led driver , the esp32c61 is a newer chip which was not supported in this driver version. If you want to drive the led in esp32c61 board, you can update the espressif/led_strip version to at least 3.0.0 , and replace the led_driver.c file with the file in attachment.
The reason we chose not to update the driver version for now is based on considerations of RAM and flash size usage.

led_driver.c
