#Bluetooth proxy conflict. Device detected only via one proxy

I have a device called BM6 in my car to monitor battery voltage. Its range is very short, so I got an ESP Proxy with external antenna so it could pick it up from within WiFi range. It worked.

But then I discovered my Shelly PM Mini G3 I already had nearby can be used as a BLE Proxy. I set it up and disconnected the ESP32 as it was unnecessary then. The Shelly picks up the BM6, but for some reason, it doesn't pass it to HA to detect it. See image with the MAC.

The BM6 struggles sending to 2 devices at the same time, so it only sends to one or the other.

  • If I disable the Shelly, the BT Proxy picks it up and it works fine with its custom integration.
  • If I disable the ESP32, I can see the device picked up by the Shelly, but HA doesn't get it for the integration.

Why?
