SwitchBot Outdoor Meter over Matter - missing attribute

🛎️ Get Help Devices

I've been using @kkossev's Matter Advanced Bridge to control my SwitchBot hub. I recently switched over to the built-in Generic Matter Bridge driver because of the support for door locks, but I noticed a loss in functionality with my outdoor meter.

The outdoor meter is a temperature and humidity sensor. The Matter Advanced Bridge detects that and assigns it the driver "Generic Component Omni Sensor", which supports both of those. The Generic Matter Bridge assigns the driver "Generic Component Temperature Sensor" -- no humidity reading. Furthermore, the child device won't let me manually change the driver to correct this.

@bcopeland Can we get a fix for this? I'm running platform 2.4.2.125.

I'll look into this, in the meantime you could use the advanced bridge for the sensor, and ours for the lock.

@dsegall this is possible if you have two HE hubs - one and the same Matter Bridge can be usually paired to multiple HE hubs.

I've updated the bridge and added a combo temp/hum sensor to the available component drivers. This will be in the next 2.4.2 release assuming there is one, we're trying to close out 2.4.2. Otherwise it will be in first 2.4.3 beta.
