Problem Description

Recognize these? Here's what usually causes it.
Common Causes
- Wrong event type in automation
- Device not reconfigured
- Integration mapping changed
Most fixes happen in the first 3 steps.
Do not rely on outdated forum snippets without verifying current payload format.
Tools & Requirements
Step-by-Step Solution
Read live events
Use Home Assistant event tools to identify exact event fields emitted by current integration.
Rebuild triggers
Map automations to current event payload keys instead of older examples.
Reconfigure device
Run re-interview/reconfigure so capabilities are refreshed after firmware or integration changes.
Quick Solutions
Still having issues? This is usually the deeper cause below.
If the sensor still misses events after repositioning, check whether a scheduled 'home' or 'away' mode is overriding the sensitivity setting silently.
Keep a reusable blueprint for known-good multi-tap mappings.
Home Assistant issues that only appear after restart are a well-known quirk — triggers that require prior state history simply can't fire until that history rebuilds.
