I was doing to things in HA, as I am rebuilding my HA instance — which has been great to do after 7 years of running a totally polluted and hacked about HA… It was how I learned a lot 
Any way, one of the changes was moving to Zigbee2MQTT – which is amazing BTW!
I manually turned on a Sengled standard colored bulb on using the knob switch on the bulb outlet. The light is paired and works just fine with Zigbee2MQTT, HA, NodeRed, triggered with automation by Hue switches and Hue motions, etc. All good. I can see the bulb in Z2M just fine.
I walked away to do something and left the light on. I came back and jumped into HA to do something and noticed that the light was showing in “off” state in HA.
I checked the Z2M logs and I can see it publishing to the logs the state, brightness, etc. Checked the HA logs and I don’t see anything.
So I’m thinking there is some message publishing or configuration options I’m missing - where Z2M should tell what it knows about a device in such scenario?
I can easily sync them back up – turning on/off a switch or triggering the motions, but that sounds like the wrong way.
Any help is appreciated!
