homeassistant-powercalc: Group state might be misbehaving because

System Health details

upon updating to 1.9.10 I changed several groups from listing entities (lights in this case) to the new wildcard, documented in https://github.com/bramstroker/homeassistant-powercalc/blob/master/docs/source/sensor-types/group/include-entities.rst#wildcard

config see below.

these lights are mostly powered off physically, and with the listed entities that never caused a logging. With the new wildcard, it seems to bother Powercalc 😉: Group state might be misbehaving because

I can understand PC notices it cant see the lights currently, but maybe this is a debug message, and not as much a error level message.

It is by design of the user

Moreover: when actually powered the grouped sensor does not change from unavailable to a state.

I fear I do experience the same as https://github.com/bramstroker/homeassistant-powercalc/issues/1920 because even with my original entities those grouped sensors remain unavailable.

downgrading to 1.9.9 brings back my grouped sensor values correctly
