Trying to get the rtl_433 HASS autodiscovery script working and having issues. I can manually push the data to MQTT so it’s not a connection issue. When I try to run the following command, the output appears to get stuck because no data is pushed to MQTT.
pi@raspberrypi:~/rtl_433/examples $ rtl_433 -C si -M newmodel | python3 /home/pi/rtl_433/examples/rtl_433_mqtt_hass.py
rtl_433 version 20.02-187-gdd8da88 branch master at 202010141001 inputs file rtl_tcp RTL-SDR
Use -h for usage help and see https://triq.org/ for documentation.

I changed the following lines in the py script:
MQTT_HOST = "SERVER IP"
MQTT_PORT = 1883
MQTT_TOPIC = "rtl_433/+/events"
# When MQTT_USERNAME is set to None it will disable username and password for mqtt
MQTT_USERNAME = "USER"
MQTT_PASSWORD = "PASS"
DISCOVERY_PREFIX = "homeassistant"
DISCOVERY_INTERVAL = 600 # Seconds before refreshing the discovery
