Does anyone know why my custom mqtt light would send a value of 3 when I start listening to the brightness_command_topic? It only sends it once, and not again unless I execute an actual action on the light.
- name: "R2D2 Holoprojector"
unique_id: "r2d2_df12b4032fe411e4800bcd1fd09bffdc"
state_topic: "homeassistant/switch/r2d2/holoprojector/state"
command_topic: "homeassistant/switch/r2d2/holoprojector/switch"
brightness_state_topic: "homeassistant/switch/r2d2/holoprojector/brightness"
brightness_command_topic: "homeassistant/switch/r2d2/holoprojector/brightness/set"
on_command_type: "brightness"
optimistic: false
retain: false
brightness_scale: 255
payload_on: "ON"
payload_off: "OFF"
My desired behavior would be to not send anything, or if it “has” to send something a 0 or “OFF” would suffice.
EDIT: Added desired behavior.
