Name prefix not being added #157

Hi,

Currently having an issue where the prefix name is not being added to the sensors. When I check the general setting.json, the prefix is set, so I don't know why it does not show. HassWS seems to be dropping the prefix name randomly, and I can't exactly point when/how.

The Prefix is set to {"NamePrefix":"Matebook"}

I cleaned all the old sensor states on the MQTT and restarted everything to make sure this was clear. If I change the name to remove the caps this still seems to happen, ie the prefix is dropped on the name randomly.

Edit: I do realise I can change the name of the sensor directly as a workaround, but I thought I'd report that I am seeing the issue with the prefix specifically.

Thanks

I've had the same experience where the prefix would work on some sensors then after updating something they stopped being updated in HA. Trying to remove and re-add the sensor adds it without the prefix
