Sensors not updating from MQTT as frequently as they should

Configuration
, ,
1

I run python scripts on a few Raspberry PI which report Temperature (among other things) back to HA. These scripts run every 30 seconds. I have these sensors manually defined in the configuration.yaml.

Yesterday I updated to 2022.4.7 and also updated Mosquitto Broker, prior to this it was all working fine.

Now however, HA does not seem to be updating the values of the sensors in a timely fashion, despite the values changes, it can go from a few minutes to hours before the new values are registered.

I have checked the HA log and MQTT log and I can’t see any errors in there.

I have tried restoring to a backup via the GUI interface but that doesnt seem to work (Click restore and nothing happens).

Just done another restart while writing this and now the entities just give this error…

From the configuration.yaml (They are all setup similar to this)

sensor:

  • platform: mqtt

    name: “Sully Outside Temperature”

    state_topic: “sully/temperature”

    unit_of_measurement: “°C”

I have different Raspberry Pi sensors (running the same scripts) all having the same issue.

I have included a copy and paste of the info screen so you can see how I have it setup.

Very frustrating this has happened so I will apreciate any help please.
