What are you using to see the mqtt messages being published to wyzesense2mqtt? In the logging.yaml file, if you change the file logging level to debug you will be able to see the payload that should be published. That will at least tell you if its getting that far.

Thank you for your reply. I was using homeassistant to listen to all events coming across by subscribing to "#" and reviewing all data logged. I saw initial discovery messages but did not see any other messages but your approach will certainly made it easier. I changed the logging to debug level and noticed the same thing. The discovery messages were being sent but further interactions did not produce any messages. I'm attaching the log for review. wyze.log
Huh, interesting. It is like its not receiving events from the dongle. Can you try running the bridge_tool_cli.py utility and toggle your sensors and see if any events print to the screen. Nothing in your logs indicate any sort of failure (not to say it isn't failing silently somewhere)
I used the utility and it showed that the devices were paired. I thought perhaps removing the devices and pairing again with the utility might solve the problem. The removal went smoothly. However, when I attempted to pair the devices, errors were displayed unfortunately I didn't record what they were, but it alluded to missing sensors.yaml file. So I created a copy of the sample sensors.yaml file and that fixed the errors. All devices were paired successfully and the mqtt messages were being sent as expected. Last time when I paired I noticed that the blue light wasn't blinking. This time however, when I was using the utility, the blue light was blinking during pairing and stopped blinking when the pairing was complete.
Thanks AK5nowman for your pointers and helping me getting things working. Much appreciated!
Raetha and creators: Thank you for creating this software and all your hard work.
No status change MQTT messages
I took the docker route and got things up and running pretty quickly on a raspberry pi 4.
Here are a few things that differentiate my experience from what is described in the instructions. The instructions say that the sensors.yaml file would be created. That did not happen. I was expecting, perhaps it would be created when the pairing is completed. But that did not happen. After spending some time trying to get it to work, I decided to create the file and see if that would help. The moved things forward to a different set of initialization errors. I decided to add the sample sensors to see if that would help. That moved things forward, the new sensors were added. After which I removed the sample sensors. Things moved smoothly this point forward and the devices and sensors appeared in MQTT messages and were added to corresponding homeassistant lists.
However, I could not move forward beyond this point. I did not see any MQTT messages after the initial discovery messages. The entries in home assistant for battery level and signal strength never updated and continue to display unknown.
I've looked at docker log and wyze log. There are no errors displayed. Following are the contents of the relevant files.

docker log docker.log
I've tried reloading the sensors by publishing the reload message. I've tried restarting the docker container, rebooting the pi. But I've not been able to move beyond the sensors and devices appearing in home assistant.
I'm assuming that any time the sensor changes, mqtt messages will be published. Forgive me, I'm new the automation world and am slowly getting up to speed on things. The issue appears to be lack of broadcast of mqtt messages when things change. I've no idea what I can to solve this/move forward. I'd greatly appreciate any help you can provide. Thank you for taking the time to read this long post.
