Describe the bug

What causes the bug? I use those devices since about 2 years and hadn’t much troubles yet. About 6 month ago I did migrate from Open Z-Wave to Z-Wave JS (V0.1.45 currently) in combination with Z-Wave JS to MQTT. I’m not quite sure if the problem exists since the migration, or if it is caused by an update.

What do you observe? When I started to use my heating again I noticed that the air temperature wasn’t accurate anymore. In fact my HA Z-Wave setup does not refresh those values anymore. When I go to to the Z-Wave JS to MQTT Dashboard I can manually refresh the values and they get accurate then. What did you expect to happen? The sensor data should get updated regularly. Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Go to ‘MQTT Z-Wave Dashboard’
2. Click on ‘a Eurotronic Valve’
3. Scroll down to ‘Multilevel Sensor’ and refresh the Air Temperture
4. See that the value gets updated now.

Here the log file plus some debug logs about node 7. It shows that the regular polling includes Air temp but does not update the value. But after a manual refresh it does it. log_MQTT_21-07.txt zwavejs_2021-10-25.log
