Tasmota Integration status messages?

I currently have many Tasmota switches using MQTT to HA with mqtt configuration.yaml entries, ie:

mqtt:
    switch:
     - name: "Guest Bedroom"
        unique_id: "opgbLight"
        command_topic: "cmnd/tasmota-opgb/power"
        state_topic: "stat/tasmota-opgb/POWER"
        qos: 1
        payload_on: "ON"
        payload_off: "OFF"
        retain: false

When I apply a patch or update to HA and it needs to reboot, these switches show OFF afterwards, even though they are still on.

I’ve noticed that “SetOption19 0” supports the tasmota integration with mqtt and wondering if this would solve this issue: Will converting all my switches configurations over to use the tasmota integration result in it showing the correct on/off status of the switches after a HA reboot?

Just want to make sure before jumping down that rabbit hole.

Thanks!

Probably. All of my Tasmotized switches are discovered via the Tasmota integration (not via Home Assistant’s MQTT Discovery) and their reported state remains correct after a restart
