Thanks for the quick reply.
Ok, I tested more, using a corona material on the object with the compositing tag work as desired, but having a corona light material on it does not work.
I just realized I am probably using the wrong material here :)
If I have a view in the distant (archviz) I usually just through a corona light material on it so I can illuminate it as desired and it looks good in the distant. I just used a normal material with self illumination and it works.
