Platform broadlink not ready yet: None; Retrying in background in 30 seconds

Configuration

Hi,

I’m trying to create a switch for a BroadLink RM mini 3 so that I can use it in HomeKit. I was following Broadlink - Home Assistant (home-assistant.io) page.

Neither of these solutions worked for me.

This is my switch.yaml file:

- platform: broadlink
  mac: 78:0f:77:51:dd:af
  switches:
    - name: LG TV
      command_on: "JgBIAAABKJEUEhMREzcUEBQSExETEhMRFDYUNhMSEzYUNhQ2EzcUNRQSExETEhQ1FBITERMSExEUNhQ2EzcUEBQ2FDYTNxQ1FAANBQ=="
      command_off: "JgBIAAABKJEUEhMREzcUEBQSExETEhMRFDYUNhMSEzYUNhQ2EzcUNRQSExETEhQ1FBITERMSExEUNhQ2EzcUEBQ2FDYTNxQ1FAANBQ=="

When I Enable debug logging I get this error message:

Platform broadlink not ready yet: None; Retrying in background in 30 seconds

Is there something I am missing?

I had this a couple of times, unplug the broadlink, keep HA running. Wait a few seconds then plug the broadlink back in, with me it then found it.

Try without the colons in the mac address. Mine look like this:

  - platform: broadlink
    mac: a043b05517ac

I have the same problem, integration works but always find the log on HA startup:

Platform broadlink not ready yet: None; Retrying in background in 30 seconds

I tried the edit yaml configuration without the colons in the mac address nut still getting the log
