How to debug Kodi notify - Not working anymore after update

After updating kodi notify isn’t displaying anything anymore. Nor the onboard log (extended) nor kodi’s log show anything suspicious.

Where could I start digging?

If you haven’t solved this yet, the latest kodi update now forces you to use authentication.

You can either specify a username and password in the notify config

notify: 
  - platform: kodi
    name: kodi
    host: 192.168.1.x
    username: kodi
    password: xxxx

Or disable authentication by editing the following lines in Kodi’s guisettings.xml

<setting id="services.webserver">true</setting>
<setting id="services.webserverauthentication">false</setting>
