Hi,
Sorry if I am double posting, but I am unable to find the solution for the below error.
ERROR (MainThread) [homeassistant.components.switch] Error while setting up platform broadlink
Traceback (most recent call last):

I have followed the guide below to configure:
https://www.home-assistant.io/components/broadlink/#switch
Home Assistant version 0.91.1
My current configuration.yaml:
> switch: > - platform: broadlink > host: xx.xx.xx.xx > mac: 'zz:zz:zz:zz:zz:zz' > timeout: 15 > switches: > aircon_power: > friendly_name: "Aircon Power" > command_on: 'redacted' > command_off: 'redacted'
Steps that I have took:
- Replace the init.py file with the one below.
https://github.com/mjg59/python-broadlink/blob/master/broadlink/init.py - Upgrade pycryptodome

Am willing to try any recommendations to get this component working. Any help is appreciated.
