Sometimes some of my automations don't trigger, so when I look at the trace to find out why, I'll see something like unknown entity. Does anyone know what's happening and how to fix it?

Maybe click on that lux entity in the dashboard and see if it has been consistently transmitting its data (on the history graph)? I'm pretty sure you'll get this warning if the state reads "unavailable" which could be a reception issue or a dying sensor.

I recently saw this happen to an animation of mine and I think this was the cause

Maybe I should actually update the coordinator
