Auto discovery not working in HA

[azrael783]

Hi,

first of all here is my setup:

1. I use Home-Assistant Core on a Raspberry Pi 4
2. the MQTT broker is running on my NAS
3. I am able to sent and receive messages via MQTT (I use it already for other things)

My problem is that if I connect for example with MQTT.Fx (Windows Client) to my broker, subscribe to homeassistant/sensor/# I can't see any message regarding the heatpump. HA also does not discover the device automatically. If I use HA to subscribe to homeassistant/sensor/heatpump/# I do see messages coming in. Any idea why I don't see the messages outside of HA and why the discovery won't work?

Hi @azrael783, please see this post #1 (comment). A delay node is holding back all MQTT config messages, which are required for HA to discover the new sensors. And you need to have the MQTT integration setup within HA (through the UI). Can you check, if you see the /config messages in HA?

Hi @fucm, thank you for your feedback. I connected the "Finalize discovery msg" directly to the MQTT publish node and now I am able to see all the sensors in HA. :-) Thank you for work, I really appriciate it!
