Custom Flow Control not changing after database update

I have a situation where i want to reset a DAYNIGHT custom flow control. User can press the *289 BLF to force night mode prior to the Time Condition routing to the answering service. BLF works correctly.

FreePBX 2.11.0.42; Elastix 4 on top of FreePBX.

I found this snippet of code (very sufficient way to change call flow control!):
asterisk -rx 'devstate change Custom:DAYNIGHT9 NOT_INUSE'

INUSE = call path 2
NOT_INUSE = call path 1

When run from a prompt, devstate changes (according to database show) - and BLF changes to Green.
However the call path does not follow the normal path - and when i dial *288 - the system says feature code deactivated.

It seems the devstate command does not change the actual state of flow control, it only changes BLF, not the actual call flow.

Any clues on what I am doing wrong?
