Hello,
I do have a strange problem with zwave. I did find a kind of work-around, but I would like to know if there is a permanent solution.
I run HA in vm virtual box (on windows 10)
Home Assistant 2023.3.5
Supervisor 2023.03.2
Operating System 9.5
Zwave JS newest version (I think 0.1.77), but older versions did the same
Zwave stick: Aeotec Z-Wave USB Stick Z-stick 7, upgraded to 7.17.2
Every now and then connected devices get unavailable in HA. Specially when for example a switch has to go on or off.
My workaround is an automation that detects the unavailable state and then ping the device, what makes it available again, and turn the switch again on/off.
That works, but I think that should not be necessary, it should be stable in one or else way.
Had anyone this problem too and fixed it?
How can I fix this?
