Current discovery message format is JSON in all cases (in application code). I had no issues when did sensors discovery from my device to my hass. So, your provided description looks unreal for me. But I'm newbie here so I could be wrong.

Aren't you confusing the old yaml code displayed for legacy purposes with the internal HASS discovery format?

What HASS version do you use?
