### Describe the bug
I am using ser2net to host my zwave stick im also doing the same for zigbee.
zigbee is working fine HA ZHA connect to it everytime first time no 1 issue.
however zwave js ui will not connect but will sometimes after a long while.

this is ser2net you can see there is a connection made for the zigbee stick but no connection to the zwave stick

zwave shows driver failed to initialize. Sometimes with random rebooting of zwave js ui and the ser2net pi or just waiting for a long while it will connect and then work ok until the connection is stopped again either by the pi with ser2net rebooting or zwave js ui addon restarting.
### To Reproduce
connect zwave controller via ser2net
### Expected behavior
to connect
### Additional context
_No response_
Another resport was made a while back has this functionality been removed?

Doesn’t seem to be a universal problem as I’m on Add-on version 3.19.0 and it’s working find with my production system using ser2net. I’m using a HomeSeer Z-net which is a RPi with ser2net and a HAT controller.

You might get more of a response if you included some useful information in the issue. I’d suggest posting a driver debug log and your ser2net configuration.
