Switching fan speeds from HA is not reliable #18
Description
hi, I encountered the following behaviour.
When I want to switch fan speeds from Home Assistant UI, it ofter occurs that the ventilation box does not follow my command. In order to 'force' the box to the right speed I have to quickly toggle the HA UI from medium to high for example. This somehow forces the desired state to be sent.
I can't pinpoint the underlying logic but this is what I know:
- When I first switch modes on the Physical RFT-remote (HIGH), the next command from the HA UI is always working (e.g. MEDIUM).
- But then next speed command (e.g. HIGH) from HA does not come through.
- I then have to quickly tap MEDIUM / HIGH in the HA UI in order to force the desired state.
Hope this explanation makes some sense. Here's my .yaml and a recent log for more context.
