Bluetooth stability and blocking issues - switch to Bleak like HA

fsaris opened this issue · 0 comments

HA is providing more Bluetooth support since version 2022.07 (#59 (comment)).

For there Bluetooth support Bleak is used but the Telink chip used by AwoX doesn't seem to follow the BLE standard (hbldh/bleak#972).

I tried to work around this (see #59 #64) but still it's not ideal and current implementation creates a lock on the Bluetooth adapter and conflicts with the Bluetooth features HA provides.

Once hbldh/bleak#972 is fixed we could proceed with this component. For now I will be focusing on https://github.com/fsaris/EspHome-AwoX-BLE-mesh-hub as it's shows to be more stable.
