Error fetching awox data: No device connected

[ludoComp9]

Hello,

Configuration:

• NUC with embedded Bluetooth adapter (intel).
• Host: Debian 11.6 with Proxmox 7.3
• VM: HAOSS 2023.1.7

Bluetooth adapter (hci0) is detcted by Home Assistant with valid MAC address. Awox custom component v0.1.4 successfully installed (AwoX / Eglo light devices and Mesh object added).

Unfortunately, Mesh device is still unavailable, and I can see this following message at the HA plugins load:

Second error message is:

Any idea ? (It worked fine before 2022.7)

Do you have the HA Bluetooth component enabled? The integration needs a dedicated Bluetooth controller and that interfere with the Bluetooth component.

[ludoComp9]

Yes, HA Bluetooth integration is defined and launched. I have just to remove it ?

[fsaris]

Yes, disable/remove te integration and restart HA to ensure the Bluetooth controller gets available again for the awox integration

[ludoComp9]

Done. Unfortunately, same error message

I'm now focusing on a ESPHome solution https://github.com/fsaris/EspHome-AwoX-BLE-mesh-hub because of all Bluetooth issue, maybe that helps you too.
