You mean the light that the daylight sensor is powering is on during the day and at night the light goes off.

This may have something to do with the proximity to another block, try it with a single block between each light/sensor. I cannot test this myself currently.
I had a chance to check this out, first screen is from when I loaded the world, second was after I inverted the sensors, and the last is after I switched them back off. Only one light turned off whilet the others remained lit. (The far right one turned off for half a second before coming back on on its own) These tests were in creative flat always day.
Added abother screenshot. Seems like if something is within one block, it stays powered, 2 or more away and it works as intended.
Does this work as intended?
After extensive testing, both to understand how light sensors output power and the power needed to light a lamp (1), this works as intended, just not as you (or I) were expecting. At high noon a sensor outputs a value of 16, while inverted outputs 0. Somewhere in the middle, say at sunset, the output becomes the same whether inverted or not, and since the lamp only requires one power unit to light, it appears to be unaffected by the inversion.
I dont know if I'm wrong, but daylight sensor, the inverted ones, seemed to be depended on the day instead of the time. As I've seen, the inverted ones worked after a Minecraft day.
If I put leaf blocks above the inverted daylight sensor, it generates power, which is normal since it blocked the light source. But if I convert it to normal daylight sensor with the same leaf block, it still generates power. Is it normal?
Indeed this is a bugs I have tested this in my own world map
I am afraid we can not reproduce this bug in the recent version. Please update affected versions if this bug still occurs.
