Huh, I have an LG and haven't had any issues like that at all. My only complaint is home assistant can't manage them directly and has to go through their cloud.

Oh that's super interesting, thanks for the heads up.

If it was unreliable I'd do this, but despite going through the LG cloud it's pretty bulletproof and instant. I just have to open their app every 6-12 months or so to accept a new EULA. Really shows how shitty their app is though, since their cloud back-end seems solid.

Edit: Oh actually, this feature might sell me on doing it: "the unit doesn’t make annoying sounds when settings are changed by this controller"
