Tasmota integration over MQTT read-only

Configuration
,
1

I have replaced a dead Z-Wave dimmer plug with an Armtronix single channel Wifi Dimmer. I have flashed the dimmers ESP8266 and Atmega328 with Tasmota 11.1.0 with succes. I can login on the webinterface and manage the device (on/off and set brightness).

In HomeAssistant the device was discovered successfully (I checked SetOption19 = 0 nonetheless). I see several sensors and can add a switch to the dashboard.

Only using the switch doesn’t result in anything - I don’t even see changes on MQTT when monitoring it using MQTT Explorer.

I might have a slightly different than usual topic structure, as I group all Tasmota devices together, so it looks like this:

tasmota/armtronix_314334/STATUS

Tasmota config for this:

I’m considering adding the light dimmer to yaml config manually to define the topics but it would be nicer if it could be done using the regular integration of course.

Anyone have a clue where I could look for further debug?

Ok to answer my own question then… it missed the “/%prefix%/” suffix at the end of the tasmota config, apparently it needed that.
