Looks good to me |
Isn't this messing with people's LTS if we just change it? |

Since volume can be both a "total" (amount of water which has flowed through a pipe) and a measurement (amount of water in a gas tank), please add comments explaining which one this is. Or could it be both since bthome allows to create your own sensors?
If it's the latter, I think bthome needs to differentiate between those two, and/or make it clear which one a bthome volume
sensor represents because they are not quite the same thing.

I checked the bthome documentation (https://bthome.io/format/), I think this should be the stored amount of volume, as the volume flow rate is below. So we need to keep the state class and change the device class to VOLUME_STORAGE.

volume flow rate is in m3/hr, that is something different.
I think we have to create two different sensors in https://github.com/Bluetooth-Devices/bthome-ble
A VOLUME_STORAGE
sensor with and SensorStateClass measurement
A VOLUME
sensor with UoM Liter and SensorStateClass total

My proposal would be that you use SensorStateClass total
for the current VOLUME
sensor. The VOLUME_STORAGE
sensor can be added later in a different PR. I have made an issue on the bthome repo here for that request. Bluetooth-Devices/bthome-ble#100

Ok perfect, thanks for creating the issue in the bthome repo. Than this PR is fine. I spoke to @emontnemery about the LTS and that would be fine as the LTS have been wrong since the beginning.

I have added the VOLUME STORAGE
sensor to bthome 3.4.1
https://github.com/Bluetooth-Devices/bthome-ble/releases/tag/v3.4.0
https://github.com/Bluetooth-Devices/bthome-ble/releases/tag/v3.4.1
Added to HA in #107757
Proposed change
bthome uses the wrong state class for sensors with the device class
timestamp
andvolume
