WTH two wled units, one works, the other is not seen

I have two wled units, both gwledopto ESP , the only difference is that one is sound :microphone:reactive, the other is not.
They have consecutive IP adresses 192.168.1.10x in the same subnet as my raspberry π where home assistant is lodged.
The one was discovered as soon as i installed home assistant, when i go in the WLED integration and type in the IP of the other: host not found.
In the terminal i can ping them both.

From any other phone or laptop they both work as normal.
:person_shrugging:t4:

Are they on the same firmware version?

HA only supports version 0.14.x and higher.

ohhh right - that must be it.

the one not recognised it 0.13.3, the one recognised it 0.14.4

these are gledopto pre-flashed units, without USB.

I cannot find a sound-reactive version 0.14.x though that I could upload over the air?

You may be able to control the older version one via mqtt

I really have no idea how to do that - I have the mosquitto broker for zigbee2mqtt - but how to couple that all together? do you have a hint / example ?

hen write sample yaml configuration for WLED with MQTT?
Thanks

Sorry, I don’t know what you’re asking.

I would like to see an example configuration to use MQTT with WLED

Sorry, I don’t have an example. You have to enable MQTT on the WLED device so that it sends things to your broker, then you have to configure it using the resulting topics.

I tried but I can’t read the status

that sounds like very complex and much above my understanding of home assistant

It’s not too complex, I can’t help tech1977 because I’d need to see his topics, and something like this should aslo be it’s own support thread.
