I was building a block pyramid for my beacon, and when i placed the beacon, the beam wouldn't shoot out. i tried placing a diamond in the beacon, but nothing would work.
P.S. Would it be affected because i'm right underneath the spawn point?
Environment
Underneath my glass dome on the ocean floor using the waterworld preset for superflat.

Please edit your summary to something more descriptive. "Beacon block" in itself is not a bug, you may want to change it to something like "Beacon does not work under water" if you believe that is the bug.
[It would appear|MC-20310] that a lava source block qualifies as "a clear path to the sky". Is that intentional?
From what I have read and the little playing around with the beacon block, from what I can assert, the beacon block must have a clear path to the sky.
