Describe the issue you are experiencing
The Area Card does allow to add alert-information / alert-notification to it.
These are binary_sensors, that will be shown on the area card, as soon as the binary_sensor got the value "true" / "on".
In some cases, this would show up an "alert" in the wrong context.
For example, for the connectivity.
connectivity is true, when the connection has been established.
As soon, as a connection dropped, the sensor would be false.
The area card does only show the alert-state for connectivity, when the sensor is true - which means, when the device or what ever is connected.
But this does not require any "alarm".
Either, the logic of the binary sensor of type "connectivity" needs to be inverted -> connected, would then be state false, disconnected would be state=true (in this case, the naming of the senosr would be wrong) - or the logic for alarm states on the area card needs to be reworked and improved.
Describe the behavior you expected
alarm states on the area card, such as "connectivity" (for example) should only be shown, when the sensor value is false / off
Right now, the alarm would be shown, when the connectivity state is true => which means, everything is fine.
Steps to reproduce the issue
- add connectivity sensors to HomeAssistant
- make sure, it is on / true / connected
- add the connectivity as alarm state to an area card
