I am running mosquitto on a Raspberry pi B+. I have HA installed on my laptop in a virtual env. I can
su -s /bin/bash homeassistant
homeassistant@travis-Asus ~/.homeassistant $ ping 192.168.1.200

both yaml entries point at the same switch.

All of this gives me 2 switches in the HA web UI they toggle but my light doesnât come on.
MQTTlens subscribed to above topics receives nothing.
on my laptop where HA is installed:
.homeassistant # su -s /bin/bash homeassistant

and

I canât figure out why the commands donât make it to the sonoff and toggle the light. (Or how I managed to format this post like this) Your thoughts are apprciated.
