Hi there,
I’ve just installed 2 Aqara switches and hooked them up to Home Assistant - one is a single button no neutral and one is double button with neutral. Both work great until I restart HA … single button version restores it’s state but double button version always shows ‘off’ (both buttons) which basically breaks ‘switch.toggle’ automation against it.
I searched a lot around this forum but didn’t find any info:(
I’ve enabled debug and can see that there is difference in response from the ‘good’ single button and the ‘bad’ double button switch on HA init:
the bad:

<Entity Wall Switch LN Left_158XXXXXX: off> - this one is actually ON at this moment
the good:

i.e. the ‘good’ one has {“voltage”:3300,“channel_0”:“off”}’ while I don’t see that on the double switch.
Questions:
- Does anyone else have this issue?
- If that is confirmed to be a “feature” (not a bug), is there a way to workaround this behaviour (for example, saving the pre-restart state somehow “manually” and then restoring it using automation afterwards)?
