Xiaomi Miio and Smartmi Fan 2 (zhimi.fan.za3) not responding intermittently

[spacecakes]

The problem

Xiaomi Smartmi Fan 2 sets up properly using the GUI, then swiftly becomes unavailable and unable to be controlled.
It pops back up intermittently for brief periods and can be controlled, then goes offline again. Other apps can control it just fine, so there is something going on with this integration and this fan.

Edit: I should mention I am running HA in Docker. @syssi suspected this might have something to do with it, although other users below are not and still have problems.

What version of Home Assistant Core has the issue?

2022.3.3

What was the last working version of Home Assistant Core?

No response

What type of installation are you running?

Home Assistant Container

Integration causing the issue

Xiami Miio

Additional information

Some notes that may be of use:

• my device is on the same VLAN
• Wi-Fi reliability and signal are great
• the unofficial integration still works
• the Mi app still works
• the Homebridge fan plugin still works
• the python-miio CLI is able to read the fan
• the fan device screen displays the UniFi logo rather than the Mi logo after initial setup, probably because I have a UDM Pro and the UniFi Network integration enabled

According to python-miio:

Model: zhimi.fan.za3
Hardware version: esp32
Firmware version: 2.0.2

Hey there @rytilahti, @syssi, @starkillerOG, @bieniu, mind taking a look at this issue as it has been labeled with an integration (xiaomi_miio) you are listed as a code owner for? Thanks!

Could you check what's the error message in the logs? Is it unable to discover the device or is it something else?

Could you check what's the error message in the logs? Is it unable to discover the device or is it something else?

Hi. Does that help?

[rytilahti]

I don't see anything here using either homeassistant.components.xiaomi_miio or miio loggers, so only thing it shows is that the device does not seem to be responsive. Could you enable debug logging for one of those and check if you are seeing any responses from the device?

[ollioddi]

Having same kind of issues. My fan often goes "Unavailable".

Can these logs help?

Guys did you figure out a workaround? Would really like to get my fan working again... Unofficial integration does the job for now but isn't as sleek.

[Lefuneste83]

Exact same issue here with zhimi.fan.za3. I used to have a custom integration for many years that worked flawlessly (ancient miio integration). Today I have installed the fan again as days are getting warmer in my area. As I changed the SSID during winter, I had to reinitialize the Wifi connection. I registered the device again on the Xiaomi app (using sg country). This worked flawlessly. I was then offered to update the fan to 2.0.3.0013 (was in 2.0.3.0010 before). The update went fine. I then removed the custom integration from HA (from my config.yaml) and proceeded to add the fan via the "official" Miio integration. The integration did its job fine until the end, meaning it connected to sg server and identified all my registered devices. I did the same with my home purifier few weeks ago. The Fan gets then added as a new device without issue, and is responsive for about 20 seconds. But It then disconnects from HA and is no longer available as a device. It is nonetheless perfectly seen by the Xiaomi application and does not lose its IP connection. My firewall does not block any traffic neither. Wish you can find a solution to this.

I should add that I also have an Air Purifier (zhimi.airpurifier.mb3) using the exact same SSID and Integration in HA and it does NOT suffer from the same behavior. I have tried to manually add the Fan using the proper API token (extracted using the token extractor python script). The Token is accepted when manually adding the device. But the resulting behavior is identical, with alternating connections/disconnections. Because I doubt the issue is LAN related, this leaves us with 2 options :
-Either the integration indeed has a problem for this specific device (zhimi.fan.za3)
-Either the updated firmware I have installed on the Fan has changed its behavior regarding its interoperability
