Are they dimmable bulbs?Just to confirm that it is a dimmer switch.
The switches control 2 lights but the bulbs are fine
Indeed.Many dimmer switches will not work in a normal 2 way circuit as they are not change over switches. They have three terminals. Live and Switched Live as in a normal ON OFF switch but the third terminal is a control input for use in "two way switching" The control input, sometimes called "slave" takes a control signal from the other "switch" which is not a switch but a remote controller.
