Warning `MQTT entity name starts with the device name in your config`

[7wells]

Hi Fabian!

I see this warning in the logs but am unsure if I as user can solve the problem, or if you as author of the batmon-ha addon can do something about it:

Logger: homeassistant.components.mqtt.mixins

I have not changed anything in my HA settings around the time of the occurrence of these warnings; therefore, I'm a bit puzzled about what has triggered them now.

If you need more information from me, please let me know. If this is not related to your addon, then please accept my apologies for mentioning it here; maybe you could then nudge me into the right direction where to look further?

Anyway, thank you so much! 👍
