Xiaomi bedside lamp unable to connect

Hi,
In previouse instance of HA, which I have used in the past and then stop I was able to control Xiaomi bedside lamp gen 1.
I am trying to add of all my yeelight now.
Two of three works fine.

see my configuration.yaml:

 - platform: yeelight
    devices:
        # Yeelight big lamp
        192.168.31.105:
            name: Big lamp
            transition: 1000
            use_music_mode: true
            save_on_change: true
        # Yeelight small lamp pc   
        192.168.31.90:
            name: Small lamp
            transition: 1000
            use_music_mode: true
            save_on_change: true
        # Xiaomi bedside lamp     
        192.168.31.8:
            name: Bedside lamp
            transition: 1000
            use_music_mode: true
            save_on_change: true
            model: bslamp1

The last one trows error even I can control it over mi home app and google home app and google assistant outside of HA.

Any ideas and help please with this one?

Thank you,

Any help please?

I am using version 2 of this device. After updating it, the control over the local network disappeared. It looks like you may be the same. Download the YeeLigh App and check.

In the Mi Home app, the firmware version is showing as 1.6.6_0172 and it says it’s the latest version.

This is the problem that the firmware has been updated. Local control is disabled in the latest firmware. Or is it a firmware bug.

I did a reset hoping it might come back but no luck.

I have the same in yeeight app.

Same issue for me now. Looks like the firmware was updated without letting me know. F… Xiaomi. Not much we can do I think. Sent them a support message and one star in Google Play store.

Update: Downloaded apk for Yeelight version 3.2.59. I was able to activate Local control again. So was the Yeelight app that disabled and removed the buttons for it in newer version. The firmware i have 2.0.6.0030 do still have LAN control.
