Duplicated MQTT Entity Name in HomeAssistant

[bmcgowan32]

Hey! I've noticed that all of my TCP light entities have a duplicated name in HA. Looks like it might be due to change in the MQTT naming process made last fall in HA? Based on the link below, I am guessing that the duplicate names are because of this change?

Could you take a look?

I updated the code last fall to account for that breaking change. Plus it doesn't take full effect until April. So you shouldn't be seeing any duplicates related to that. I'm not seeing it on my end and none of the mentioned warnings appear in the logs.

I might be misremembering. but did you not change MQTT brokers at one point? It's possible the duplicates were created then..

Thanks! I am still using the built-in Mosquito broker in HA, but I'll dig a bit more around in my setup. I have a bunch of other MQTT entities, but only the TCP ones are having the duplicated entity name issue. I really appreciate your help and support. Ill share if I find more details.
