Philips Hue Log error at HA start

Third party integrations
1

Hi, not sure if it’s ‘normal’ but I’m seeing the following in the error log when I start Home Assistant (hass.io). The bridge was auto detected. I’m not seeing any odd behavior with the lights. I tried pressing the link button as HA starts but still get the error. I do have a simulated Hue bridge that I use to let Alexa ‘Stay arm’ my alarm panel. Not sure if it’s that one it’s complaining about (it shows up as a device waiting to be configured).

Go to the integrations
There is where you will do the button press

Yeah I did that the other day to add my Hue bridge to my HA. The lights work fine. It’s just this error at start up that bugs me. Not sure if it’s cosmetic or not.

The Hue bridge that it detected was my HA-Bridge that I had running on a Pie2 (with weewx) to allow my Alexa to ‘stay arm’ the alarm system. Now that HA has a better integration to Envisalink/DSC than what I could do with HA-Bridge, I turned off HA-Bridge and the extra Hue bridge disappeared :slight_smile:

Now I wish I could figure out how to stop that Google cast from showing up. All I found was pre V0.95 and anything related to V0.95 didn’t work or the file that needed to be modified were not present on my hass.io system.

I am receiving the same error after switching from Hue Hub to Conbee II. Can you please tell me how to “turn off HA-Bridge”?

In my case, I stopped the HA-Bridge service on my Raspberry Pi
