TP-Link Kasa Integration Issue - fix in 2023.8.1

1

In case others run into this, I started seeing issues with my two TP-Link Kasa Smart power strips (KP-303), where if one switch of three was on, all reported status as on, and even the switches that were off could not be turned on via scene, script, etc.

Appears that the issue has already been noted, and a pull request provided:

https://github.com/home-assistant/core/pull/97658

So if you’re seeing this with your Kasa devices, take heart…should be fixed in the next release.

UPDATE: 2023.8.1 is out, and appears to include the fix!

I’ve updated to this build, and tested, and the TP-Link issue appears to be resolved.

Thanks, I just bumped up against this bug when I couldn’t turn the 3d printer on :slight_smile:

Workaround is to turn off all the plugs. Then you should be able to turn on the one you want.

Alternatively, the physical buttons on the power strip still work.

Definitely not an optimal bug for anyone using the TP-Link to turn off their printer in response to a smart smoke alarm. But should be fixed soon, hopefully.

Have just acquired a KP303 and having this same issue. Currently on 2023.8.0, updating now… Can confirm! It is no longer bugged!
