I’m noticing the same issue. It appears to be related to the hostname changing on each HASSIO restart.
My logs were showing:
Host 'something.something.local.hass.io' is not allowed to connect to this MariaDB server
I’ve fixed it by updating my MariaDB add on config, changing the host to:
%.local.hass.io
for both logins and rights. Seems to have fixed it.
