2D - Draw Halo not working anymore over sprite gameobject Unity 2017.2

I have a background image as a sprite and another gameobjet with a light in it. The light is set as a Spot and the Draw Halo option is checked.

In Unity 5.5+ it used to work, I was able to see the halo in the scene but now in 2017.2 it doesn’t work. Even with the Halo Component, seems that the shader can’t render it over my sprite.

The sprite have the default shader which was working great before update by the way.

Something happened with the Draw Halo in 2D in the latest update (2017.2) ?

Edit

I’ve send the bug to Unity and seems that it’s on their side… will have to wait for 2017.3
