/dev/disk/by-id in smartd.conf ignored

~$ cat /etc/smartd.conf
/dev/disk/by-id/scsi-SATA_KingSpec_KDM-44VVS14413121600085 -I 194
#/dev/sdb -I 194
DEVICESCAN -a -o on -S on -n standby,q -s (S/../.././02|L/../../6/03) -W 4,40,45 -m root

referencing the disk directly allows my to exclude it from temperature monitoring, using /by-id/ fails

~$ journalctl -f
