MQTT switch configuration

Hello,

I have a MQTT switch which publishes this message when switched:

{"tst":1574800657,"topic":"stat/janus2/POWER","qos":0,"retain":0,"payloadlen":2,"payload":ON}

and I can use mosquitto_pub -t cmnd/janus2/POWER -m ON to power if on or off. The basic MQTT integration in HA works, another device uses auto configuration and works fine.

I try to configure the switch:

switch:
  - platform: mqtt
    name: "Janus 2"
    state_topic: "stat/janus2/POWER"
    command_topic: "cmnd/janus2/POWER"

however, no such device or entity shows up in HA. The output at startup shows no error messages.

What am I missing here?

Thanks!
