Tuya (some) lights (sometimes) unavailable

[davr]

Home Assistant release with the issue: 0.103.4

Last working Home Assistant release (if known):

Operating environment (Hass.io/Docker/Windows/etc.): Hass.io on raspberry pi 3 b+

Integration: https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/tuya/

Description of problem:
I have several different devices that are set up via the smartlife app (aka tuya). Some of them will sometimes show Unavailable in HA until I restart it (calling tuya.force_update or tuya.pull_devices doesn't fix it). In addition, I see the traceback repeatedly in the log.
I think the error may only happen when the lights are in certain states (eg color and not white), but I'm not 100% sure yet, need to test more to see if there's a correlation.

Problem-relevant configuration.yaml entries and (fill out even if it seems unimportant):

tuya:
  username: "[email protected]"
  password: xxx
  country_code: "1"
  platform: "smart_life"

Traceback (if applicable):

Error doing job: Task exception was never retrieved

0.103.5 doesn’t work either. Gives the same error

[davr]

I used the "hack" mentioned in other threads (eg #28602), and it allows me to control the on/off state of all of the lights, and now all of the lights allow color commands to be sent, but only some of them do the color commands actually work.

I'm running the latest version 107.7 and I'm still getting unavailable on some of my tuya devices

v108.8 and one of my Tuya sockets/switches is unavailable despite functioning as expected within the Tuya app and another 5 sockets/switches working perfectly well within HA.

I have the same problem, my Tuya wi-fi smart sockets in Smart Life quit working about a month ago. They show up as unavailable. I keep upgrading home assistant hope they would be fixed. I added the new integration for Tuya but it did not help. My zwave Tuya smart switches work fine. here is little of the log file. I am running v0.110

I've upgraded to 114 and still get unavailable at times on a couple of smart sockets. Has anyone found a solution yet?

[tareko]

I'm seeing the same issue as well with some blinds. This also began after my upgrade to 114

[jcbagtas]

I can confirm that my tuya bulb keeps on being unavailable and having no color control as well. I am using an updated OS, Supervisor,and RPi4B 8GB.

I want to try if the unavailability issue can be fixed by removing internet access from my bulb. (Blocked outbound internet for an IP)
