USB Sonoff Zigbee dongle stopped working after port change

My SONOFF Universal Zigbee 3.0 USB Dongle Plus has stopped working with HA.Looking at the ZHA integration shows Failed setup, will retry: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/dev/serial/by-id/usb-Itead_Sonoff_Zigbee_3.0_USB_Dongle_Plus_V2_56698260733aef118b00321455516304-if00-port0'

The only change I can think that might have triggered this is my plugging it into an extension USB cable rather than directly into the Raspberry Pi. I’ve seen Sonoff Zigbee 3.0 USB Dongle Errno 2 - #5 by ShadowFist where the OP solved it by plugging it directly into the HA device, this didn’t work for me.

I’ve also seen Sonoff Zigbee Dongle has stopped working and have used the SONOFF Dongle Flasher at Sonoff Dongle Flasher - SONOFF Dongle to update the Dongle to the latest firmware but again, no joy.

Any other ideas?

Thanks in anticipation!

I realised that I hadn’t actually tried turning it off and on again! While I’d restarted HA, I hadn’t power-cycled the Raspberry Pi, I tried this and all is well again…

Slightly embarrassing but at least it’s working again!
