How should I configure MQTT switch so it would get the current Sonoff state after HASS restart? Currently all switches get an off state and I have to manually turn them on one by one.
My current config is (I’ve set the PowerRetain to On in Tasmota):
- platform: mqtt
name: "Light Kitchen"
state_topic: "stat/light_kitchen/POWER1"
command_topic: "cmnd/light_kitchen/POWER1"
availability_topic: "tele/light_kitchen/LWT"
qos: 1
payload_on: "ON"
payload_off: "OFF"
payload_available: "Online"
payload_not_available: "Offline"
retain: true

Have you run the command “PowerRetain on” on your sonoff to have the sonoff retain the power state?
@Cezex - posted this yesterday myself - having the exact same issue. Linking to my thread in case others troubleshooting might need more info etc.

Thanks @vexter0944 , will probably do similar automation until this issue will be resolved.

Which broker are you using? I believe the embedded broker does not handle the retain flag.
