I am trying to connect my Gardena Smart Water Control (Bluetooth) in HomeAssistant.
I have a RPi5 with Home Assistant OS installed, newest versions:
- Core 2024.10.2
- Supervisor 2024.10.0
- Operating System 13.1
The RPi5 comes with a bluetooth device, no dongle needed. The bluetooth integration shows up in the integrations page. When I reset the Gardena device, it does show up in the diagnostics in two paths:
- data.manager.scanners[0].discovered_devices_and_advertisement_data
- data.manager.connectable_history
Naturally, there are a lot of other devices listed there as well - yet, I do not get prompted by Home Assistant to add them. In the bluetooth integrations "System Options", the appropriate "Enable newly added entities" and "Enable polling for updates." are both activated. If I activate bluetooth scanning on my phone, the Gardena does show up as well, so I guess it's not a hardware issue.
If I try to just add the Gardena integration manually, it will not start with the message "No devices found on the network" (which makes sense, since the device has not been added yet).
I do not get any prompts for any of my bluetooth devices.
To summarize: The Gardena Device is working properly and broadcasting a new connection request, which is also picked up by the Home Assistant bluetooth integration, which is configured to prompt me for new devices - yet it does not.
I've searched and debugged for about 2 hours now, but I'm lost on how to approach this any further. Anyone who has ideas on what to do next?
