Mh-z19 sensitivity decrease when software recalibrating #4294

The problem

Ive seen some strange behavior while calibrating this sensor in esphome. Every time when I calibrate the sensor the sensor gets less sensitive. When doing a hardware calibration by grounding the HD pin the sensor resets to the sensitivity of other comparable sensors like the senseair s8. Could it be something in the code that is causing this?

Which version of ESPHome has the issue?

2023.2.4

What type of installation are you using?

Home Assistant Add-on

Both MH-Z19C are calibrated with the HD pin set to ground for 30 seconds. The MH-Z19B is calibrated by software. However when doing the software calibration with the C sensors same happens.
