Integration sometimes fails to setup

Sometimes the integration fails to setup. The following error occurs in the logs in that case:

It results in the sensor not being present. I tried enabling debug logging to see if I could see what's going on, but then stuff magicly started working again. From the stacktrace to me it looks like something going wrong with geocoding the postal code. But I may be wrong.
