Issue description Zigbee2mqtt is working properly and I can add devices to it without any issues. However, the plugin does not connect to mqtt or adds devices to DZ due to a type error. The domoticz log is as follows

I was able to sort it out on my own. Essentially I was not aware that mosquitto had to be installed before running zigbee2mqtt (I thought that it would be included in the package). As soon as mqtt broker was installed it started working immediately.
