Can you please check the entity details in HA in developer tools?
There you should find the entity with it details, state and attributes.

In HA developer tool you can also execute service calls and check what services are possible for your plugs.
But as domain switch the entity should be able to react on. And its state should switch between “on” and “off”. Perhaps the zigbee2mqtt integration uses another entity state the HA app can’t handle

Edwin_Biemond · March 28, 2023, 10:04am

will do , see the same on z-wave js.

Edwin_Biemond · March 28, 2023, 10:08am

Edwin_Biemond · March 28, 2023, 10:11am

it seems z-wave js is the issue for me , zigbee ones are working.

RonnyW · March 28, 2023, 10:30am

Which of these entities is affected? switch.tv_switch?
Is it changing its state between on/off?
What happens when you switch it directly? Is the state changing in HA and Homey or only in HA?

As first workaround you can reconnect (button Homey device settings) or restart the app to be sure it has a websocket connection and devices are registered on entity changes.

Edit: a technical detail that doesn’t fit to the situation…
Homey app sends a service call that’s switching the HA switch.
After that the entity change is reported back to Homey and that should update the switch device. And that shouldn’t do anything because HA should send back the current (changed) state.
So it seems the Websocket connection is ok, but there is something wrong with the state coming from HA.

timvdhoorn · March 28, 2023, 11:16am

If you need more details please let me know.

Edwin_Biemond · March 28, 2023, 12:05pm

will try it all tonight on a not so important z-wave socket. will let you know.

timvdhoorn · March 28, 2023, 12:56pm

For me it is an Zigbee2MQTT plug. So it looks like it has something to do with the integration.
If I switch the plug from OFF to ON in HA the same thing happens

RonnyW · March 28, 2023, 3:37pm

@timvdhoorn @Edwin_Biemond

Can you make this check in HA, please?

developer tools, events:

grafik827×570 25.8 KB

Enter the event “state_changed” and start listening. Please prepare your HA page in a second tab before because there will be many events raised with this type.
Now change the switch state in HA.
Now you should see the event in the log:
The element new_state/state should have value “on” when you switched the plug on.

grafik554×631 25.2 KB

After switching the plug off the new state should be “off”.

That’s the event Homey is listen on. And based on this event, the Homey device state is set.

Edwin_Biemond · March 28, 2023, 6:09pm

So I can turn it on from homey (and stayed on in HA ) but 3 seconds later got turned off again back,

RonnyW · March 28, 2023, 6:20pm

Did you check the event content in HA (last post)?

Edwin_Biemond · March 28, 2023, 6:24pm

yes

Edwin_Biemond · March 28, 2023, 6:36pm

looks like power event sensor.bedroom_switch_power has no state like on or off and maybe it is considered as off

this comes after switch.bedroom_switch on event

RonnyW · March 28, 2023, 6:49pm

I finally found the reason
It’s indeed the combination of switch entity and power entity. A check for main device entity_id is missing. So it’s switching on and directly aftert that switching off because the power entity is also parsed and it’s state is not “on”.

I’ll add a fix. But as I’m currently working on other additions it could take 2 or 3 days. As workaround you can try to deactivate the power entity in device settings. This should remove the second cabapiliy/entity. Just as a thought - haven’t tested it.

timvdhoorn · March 28, 2023, 6:58pm

Does anyone have an idea how to fix this?

RonnyW · March 28, 2023, 7:01pm

Is it a button or a switch?
Has it a HA entity with persistent state?

Edwin_Biemond · March 28, 2023, 7:07pm

you work too hard. take it slow before you know homey will be an expensive console, flow only engine or a satellite of HA

timvdhoorn · March 28, 2023, 7:08pm

It is a 1 click button.
Screenshot 2023-03-28 at 21.08.15

When clicked there will be a action with ‘single’ , ‘double’ etc. But what happens is that it will be on that state for less than a second and bounces back to an empty state.

RonnyW · March 28, 2023, 7:14pm

Haha. Yes, take the best of both systems. HA is good, but HA can’t offer something like AdvancedFlows.
I probably only use 10% of the app. But I love to push the limits
