Varilight V-Pro dimmer driving LED downlighters - not turning off

Morning all,
I've a new extension which has 2 banks of downlighters (one bank of 6 and one of 8) in the ceiling. Each bank is controlled by a Varilight V-Pro mullti-point touch and IR dimmer master and slave.
When I turn the lights off, they are staying on but going to a really low, barely perceptible level.
How faint? You can easily see the die illuminated in modern high
efficiency LEDs with just a couple of uA flowing in them.
Dark adapted you can see by 10uA leakage current on an LED torch. Makes
it much easier to find one in a power cut after dark.
Because it is happening on both banks, I'm inclined to suspect the dimmers.
Could also be capacitive coupling of long wiring runs especially if it
is a two switch system with them widely separated.
