ConnectionRefusedError appears in log when there are tasks waiting on light state changes

[emichael]

I'm getting the following error quite a bit in my logs whenever I have tasks that are trying to read the state of lights in RGB mode. The Dashboard UI also hangs for five or ten seconds, but eventually my automations complete successfully and do the right thing.

ConnectionRefusedError: [Errno 111] Connection refused

Specifically, I have a bit of pyscript that does the following:

wait_kwargs = {}
wait_kwargs["state_check_now"] = True
wait_kwargs["state_trigger"] = f'{entity_id} == "on"'
wait_kwargs["timeout"] = on_timeout_secs
trig_info = task.wait_until(**wait_kwargs)

current_state = state.get(entity_id)
current_attrs = state.getattr(entity_id)

The lights only really seem to hang when they're in color mode. color_temp mode seems to operate much more smoothly. My lights are the GU10 Phillips Wiz RGB/Kelvin bulbs.

I can't reproduce this issue in my test lap. Appears this error only on one bulb or on everyone in your setup? The exceptions shows a connection issue but if all other requests are working it seems to be an issue with the bulb itself. Do you try a cold reboot oft the bulb?

This can be closed as its fixed in the core version
