205H using 30W, how to limit power reservation

    I have a whole bunch of 205Hs installed and they are all using 30W of power from the switch.  I have applied the "ap-poe-power-optimization enabled" to the provisioning profle.  That has reduced the 215 and 225 APs power consumption, but the 205Hs remain at 30watts.  The best I can tell is that they are reserving the power 'just in case' someone uses the PoE port.  

     

    Is there a way to get them to stop reserving the extra power and just pull the power they require?

    Cisco 2960XR.  I just enabled 802.3az on the enet0 on the AP and from what I've read 802.3az is enabled by default starting from ios release 15.  And no change.
