Error using light services with WLED device

Configuration
,
1

I have one WLED device that is giving me all kinds of trouble. It likes to crash when I attempt to use the light.turn_off/light.turn_on service, and it perpetually becomes unavailable as a result. It also prevents certain automations from completing when trying to use these services in an automation. Here are my error logs:

 :0:0 ResizeObserver loop completed with undelivered notifications.

What gives? Could I have a bad ESP866 board? My WiFi signal to the device is strong, -61dbm.

I have tested this issue on multiple devices and it actually appears linked to an apparent bug in Home Assistant that occurs with WLED devices using a high number of segments (at least 12-14).

The issue has been reported here: WLED Integration crashes when using master segment with high number of segments · Issue #83431 · home-assistant/core · GitHub

Very old post and i am sorry to bring this back, but in the latest version of HA i still face the same errors. My LED strip has 15 segments and if it is used in an automation i get the following error:

Has anyone found any solution?

My original issue on GitHub went stale, but I do not have the same use case for WLED in my setup anymore, so this is a non-issue for me.

You could open a new issue on GitHub to get some fresh eyes on the issue.
