Smoke detector not changing state during alarm

[jmerifjKriwe]

I agree to the following

• I have read the documentation right now
• I have read the FAQs right now
• I am aware of the latest release notes
• The Backend (CCU/Homegear/...) is working as expected and connected devices are controllable by its own UI.
• I am running the latest version of the custom_component (and Home Assistant)

The problem

Hello everyone,

I have an unpleasant issue with my smoke detectors. This morning, one of the smoke detectors triggered a false alarm. However, in HomeAssistant, the state (and the corresponding attribute) of the smoke detector did NOT change, but remained on "idle_off,". Additional the other smoke detectors that triggered the secondary alarm also remained in "idle_off" the entire time.

In RaspberryMatic, I can see that the triggering smoke detector's status changed at the corresponding time. So, it the alarm was received in RaspberryMatic as expected. But, as I mentioned, in HomeAssistant, nothing has been received. There is no corresponding entry in the logbook or history either.

My various other HmIP and (old) Hm-RF devices work without any problems, and changes in status, button presses, etc., are directly displayed in HomeAssistant.

Any idea what might be the reason for this? Ideally, in such a situation, I would like to execute various security actions (turn on lights, raise blinds, unlock doors, etc.). However, if the alarm is not received, the necessary trigger is missing.

Do I need to set up or consider anything specific for the HmIP-SWSD? Since the batteries are not the best, and my family is already annoyed due to the morning false alarm, I don't want to experiment too much with smoke tests.

Thank you for any ideas!

SMOKE_DETECTOR_ALARM_STATUS is a simple sensor, without any special logic behind it.
I can't tell you why it didn't work for you, and I'm not willing to test with my devices.
Unfortunately I can't find any errors on the integration side, so I'm moving the issue to the discussions. Maybe someone will give up their batteries.
