Error doing job: Task exception was never retrieved event.data["old_state"].state

ESPHome

Anyone any idea how I can find out which of my ESPHOME nodes is causing this issue and what it means ?

I’ve put logger into debug but it doesn’t offer any more info

It only occurs on restart

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/src/homeassistant/homeassistant/components/esphome/__init__.py", line 223, in send_home_assistant_state_event
    and event.data["old_state"].state
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'state'

I’m also getting this error every time HA starts up. Not a clue where it’s coming from. It’s been happening for several HA versions for me, as well as several ESPHome versions.

Same here:

No clue where it’s coming from :frowning:

I’ve created a bug report for this. At least for me, this seems to be related to a text_sensor pulling the status of a MyQ garage door from HA.
