Folks, looking for help with a D1 Mini running tasmota v6.3.0, configured to control Addressable LEDs with MQTT, from one of Dr.Zz’s, live streams. Home Assistant is at 0.84.6

I have been doing a lot of reading, about the MQTT breaking change. Came across one Topic that suggested I need to add the following line to my HA config; “schema: json” (see below).
- platform: mqtt
schema: json <<<<<<<<<<<<<<< added this line <<<<<<<<<<
name: "LED Light Pole #1"
command_topic: "cmnd/led_pole_1/power"
state_topic: "stat/led_pole_1/power"
rgb_state_topic: "stat/led_pole_1/color"
rgb_command_topic: "cmnd/led_pole_1/color"
brightness_state_topic: "stat/led_pole_1/dimmer"
brightness_command_topic: "cmnd/led_pole_1/dimmer"
qos: 1
payload_on: "on"
payload_off: "off"
retain: false
But it still does not work, can someone tell me what else, I may be missing, or doing wrong???

Edited: I came up with a work around, I removed all the code(above), form the .yaml file. Then set Tasmota to allow “Discovery”, then rebooted HA. Discovery found the D1 Mini and created the Enitiy. Which I was able to add to Lovelace, and now the LED Strip is working properly…
