Google Home - Reporting devices off-line

A user of the Kasa Integration is reporting a google home problem. Google home is reporting devices off-line (after some interval) until the device is exercised in Hubitat. It then updates to on-line - until something is timed-out to off-line.

Question:
How does Google determe on-line status?
What is the time frame for this time-out (how often should it be refreshed)?
Can masking the attribute "switch" event when no change is indicated cause the problem?
