Yolink Sensors becoming "Unavailable" very often

[KruseLuds]

The problem

I have pasted below an automation which does not resolve the issue but does help - and it also explains the problem.

As a related item, I have also found many times when I try to turn on a Yolink relay (connected to fluorescent light tube fixtures in my basement for example), very often I have to try two or three times to turn them on and calls to do so from the Home Assistant dashboard results in a few error messages - until they actually 'wake up' and do work. I have noticed also in the Yolink app, some of those same sensors appear "offline" and this also seems to resolve that issue.

In addition to the below automation, for instances where the sensor still stays "unavailable" I have noticed that reloading the integration in HA will also help sometimes (but I believe that is also a separate issue related to the integration itself).

So - here is the automation I am using for a workaround which runs anywhere from 2-3 tikmes per hour - which I would prefer to delete or disable as soon as possible. (The outlet is actually a kasa power outlet which is meant for lights only but in this case works fine, the 'toggle' does not cut the power long enough - so it is actually turned off, then wait 2 seconds, then turn back on)

What version of Home Assistant Core has the issue?

core-2023.9.2

What was the last working version of Home Assistant Core?

No response

What type of installation are you running?

Home Assistant OS

Integration causing the issue

Yolink

Diagnostics information

Let me know what else you might need - here is a grepped version of my syslog showing how often this was fired off since I wrote the automation last night. Also note, I am still getting the MQTT disconnected error, which complicates the issue as well (but does not solve the issue as this issue has been a problem for a long time) -

Example YAML snippet

Here is the code for the automation:

alias: >-
  Yolink Hub -> If ANY Sensor becomes unavailable AND if not done within the last
  10 minutes -> Bounce the Power to the Hub
description: >-
  If any Yolink Sensor becomes unavailable (or unknown), then shut off the power
  to the hub, wait 2 seconds, and restore power to the hub. Not always, but the
  majority of the time, this resolves the issue of various sensors becoming
  "unavailable" or "unkown". This should be only a temporary workaround, due to
  events from some sensors being missed if they are taking place at the same
  exact time the hub has to reboot. (As of 9/16/2023 with 65 sensors, this
  happens 2-3 times per hour.)

Anything in the logs that might be useful for us?

Already provided above

Additional information

I have written code in that automation to only be fired off once every 10 minutes at the most. Ihave a slight bug in that, with regards to the timestamp that compared the current time to the time put into an input_text the last time the automaiton was run - so it does run more than once evey 10 minutes.

Since the automation is set as "single" mode and as it does not currently run a bunch of times endlessly withi the same few moments, I have decided to not try to fix that timestamp bug as the only result from keeping that piece of logic working would be to leave sensors as "unavailable" or "uknown" longer.

Please fix this as soon as possible (along with the mqtt bug) as this was to be used as an alarm system and has to be 100% reliable - and due tothat I am considering throwin in the towel on this because it doesn't have the reliability needed.

Hey there @matrixd2, mind taking a look at this issue as it has been labeled with an integration (yolink) you are listed as a code owner for? Thanks!

Code owner commands

Code owners of `yolink` can trigger bot actions by commenting: - `@home-assistant close` Closes the issue. - `@home-assistant rename Awesome new title` Renames the issue. - `@home-assistant reopen` Reopen the issue. - `@home-assistant unassign yolink` Removes the current integration label and assignees on the issue, add the integration domain after the command.

@KruseLuds Can i dm you on yolink discord, I need to confirm some information.

[KruseLuds]

Yes please do so!

[KruseLuds]

FYI, I simplified the code to:

(In configuration.yaml):

`template:

• binary_sensor:

  • name: "Any Yolink Unavailable" state: "{{ integration_entities('yolink') | select('is_state', 'unavailable') | list | count > 0 }}"

• binary_sensor:

  • name: "Any Yolink Unknown" state: "{{ integration_entities('yolink') | select('is_state', 'unknown') | list | count > 0 }}"

And now the yaml for the automation is only - (the entry_id (not entity_id) for the yolink integration is found in /usr/share/hassio/homeassistant/.storage/core.config.entries):

`alias: >- Yolink Hub -> If ANY Sensor becomes unavailable or unknown anbd this automation was not run within the last 10 minutes -> Turn off the Power to the Hub, Wait 2 seconds, Turn the Hub power back on, Wait 5 seconds, then reload the Yolink Integration description: >- If any Yolink Sensor becomes unavailable (or unknown), then shut off the power to the hub, wait 2 seconds, and restore power to the hub. Not always, but the majority of the time, this resolves the issue of various sensors becoming "unavailable" or "unkown". Then reloading the integration usually takes care of any other issues, hopefully, no automatio=ns need to be run at the exact time this script is running... trigger:

• platform: state entity_id:
  • binary_sensor.any_yolink_unavailable to: "on"
• platform: state entity_id:
  • binary_sensor.any_yolink_unknown to: "on" condition:
• condition: template value_template: >- {{ (float(as_timestamp(now())) - float(states('input_text.latest_yolink_hub_power_bounce'),0)) > 600 }} action:
• service: input_text.set_value data: value: "{{ as_timestamp(now()) }}" target: entity_id: input_text.latest_yolink_hub_power_bounce enabled: true
• service: light.turn_off data: {} target: entity_id:
  • light.basement_yolink_hub_power_supply enabled: true
• delay: hours: 0 minutes: 0 seconds: 2 milliseconds: 0 enabled: true
• service: light.turn_on data: brightness_pct: 100 target: entity_id:
  • light.basement_yolink_hub_power_supply enabled: true
• delay: hours: 0 minutes: 0 seconds: 5 milliseconds: 0
• service: homeassistant.reload_config_entry data: entry_id: 78fcf4596fbfdd916fb3b389f9fcfd3b mode: single `

But the above still doesn't resolve the recurring MQTT disconnect issues... as the below is part of the output from issuing this command:
