Several MQTT messages are unable to decode #352

Closed anandv85 closed 2 months ago

anandv85 commented 2 months ago

Problem/Motivation

The log shows several messages were not decoded due to a "UnicodeDecodeError".

Expected behavior

The log do not show any MQTT decode error messages. Doing so, a potential message is from one device to another device is getting discarded.

Actual behavior

The log is showing the MQTT decode error messages.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Install Appdaemon Add-on.
  2. Install the "Qolsys Gateway - qolsysgw" through HACS.
  3. Configure the Appdaemon to run the Qolsys Gateway.
  4. Observe the Appdaemon log shows several error messages.
