Zwave devices not updating in UI

I’m a couple of days into Home Assistant.

I’m running into an issue where all of my zwave devices status don’t update properly.

If I turn them on/off manually (on device/switch) the state never changes in HA. When I turn them on (or off) using the UI they actual light does what it is supposed to but the UI doesn’t reflect the current state of the light. The UI will show the new state and then immediately go back to it’s previous state, I have to touch it again to have the UI show that the light is off (or on).

I added about 5 different devices GE dimmers, Homeseer dimmers, on/off relay, old plugin dimmer but every device has this behavior. So that leads me to believe the problem lies between home assistant or the dongle I’m using. I’ve reinstalled HA about a dozen times and tried two different zwave sticks that worked with my old setup (homeseer). I guess the problem lies with the way Home Assistant is set up. I’ve also tried adjusting zwave polling interval as suggested here. That didn’t work either.

I’ve pretty much run out of stuff to try, I even asked bing but that didn’t give me anything to try.

Here is the log that I just pulled of me turning the light on with the UI. I only have 2 nodes connected, the USB stick and the plug in dimmer.

Can anyone help me out with this?

Sorry about the formatting.

I almost have the same issue. But sometimes openzwave admin is showing the correct value, while the display in HA is wrong. A refresh solves it then :-/
