#[Bug?] Automation now only works once till reboot

Hey Y'all,

I have a long working automation with no trigger and no conditions.
It gets executed by other automations or manually by hand.
Since yesterday the automation stopped triggering so I looked at the TRACE.

The first time the trace runs from first action till last action - everything works.
The second time the automation doesn't run through the first action even though a trace is created.

Looking at the HA-logs I see a warning that the automation is already running.
That's the crux I think. If I reboot HA, it works again once.
Temporary fixes:

  • disabling and re-enabling the automation
  • restarting HA
  • restarting the Music Assistant Addon
    These fixes allow me to start execute the automation once again before it stops working.

I disabled all actions but one to find out which one causes this behavior.
This is the action in question:

action: music_assistant.play_media
metadata: {}
target:
entity_id:
- media_player.raspikueche
- media_player.raspberrypitwo_2
- media_player.wohnzimmer_mediaplayer
data:
media_id: library://track/136
enqueue: replace
enabled: true


So what do I do now?
The Trace indicates that it's rather a HA error OR that Music Assistant doesn't end the automation for some reason.

Thoughts?

Well posting that question prompted another thought in my head.
What about adding another action after the problematic one?
Turns out it's a MA problem becuase after that no other action gets triggered.

AKA Wrong Discord channel. Thanks for listening though!

An automation without a trigger or condition should be a script
