Plugin not switching from connecting to idle effect upon startup

[trevor229]

What do you need help with? I just set up octoprint 0.18.0 and when booting, the connecting effect plays as it should, however when octoprint auto-connects at bootup, the plugin remains in the connecting effect and does not switch to the idle effect. When I manually disconnect, it changes to the disconnected effect and then changes to the idle effect upon clicking connect manually.

I have tried with and without the PortLister plugin and Request exclusive serial port access

The only error I see is in octoprint.log and it is this section

2021-01-26 21:41:09,576 - octoprint.plugin - ERROR - Error while calling plugin ws281x_led_status

It should be fixed in the upcoming version, I was aware of this issue. Since the connect comes before the plugin is started up, it can't play the effect. In future versions it should (a) not fail and (b) save the connect event so it can be used when the strip etc. is setup.
