I keep getting this error:

After a restart of Home Assistant it silent for a while, after which it starts spamming again. The Twinkly command switch works most of the time, but I might do automations based on the switch state. So I need this to update correctly. What is causing this?

Yeah I started seeing this too recently. It started working again randomly and haven't bothered to look into it. I think someone is working on an mqtt version as well which would make this obsolete.

This is happening to me on a regular basis now. Once it's spamming the logs, it HA prevents me from controling any other command_line switches
