FX lights do not work properly in Alienware 14

I've bought an Alienware laptop recently and it worked fine. But a few days ago even though I change the colour of the FX lights red is still on. But when I play games and let the game take control over FX lights red light goes off and it doesn't turn on again until I reboot.
