Error Device not found in dict_keys

[Akalsharan]

Hello,

I intermittently get the following error when using this to control my orvibo S20 socket when trying to turn the socket on or off.

Device ip=[ip address] not found in dict_keys

I am using Termux on my android (Android 9). Sometimes the on/off commands work fine whereas other times I get the error above (more often than not the error is returned).

I've tried searching the web for a fix but can't find any obvious reason for the error or fix.

Any particular reason(s) I am seeing this error and do you have any advice on how to fix this?
