[Bug] Motion detection switches aren't working for doorbell

[Abba-]

Describe the bug
Toggling the switch for 'Motion Detection' or 'Power' for a doorbell doesn't work.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Turn off Doorbell Motion Detection from dashboard / entity
2. Wait 20-45 seconds (presumably the amount of time for it to poll)
3. Switch will return to on position.

Expected behavior

Motion: Motion is supported in the app (Settings -> event recording -> motion detection) so would expect this switch to show as off in the app (and the entity to reflect the off state).

Power: There isn't a power button on the app for doorbells, so this is probably simply unsupported.
Siren: Likewise, I dont think there is a siren option

System configuration
System: As Virtual Machine 10.5 on Unraid
HA Version: 2023.9.2
WyzeApi Version: 0.1.22

I don’t think motion switches work on the doorbell, so really we should not add the motion switch. Can you post the model number from the device page in HA for the doorbell and I can add it to the list of cameras that don’t support motion switch.

They absolutely do have a motion detection switch. They don’t have a regular power switch. They only capture motion. (See first post)

I believe you that they have a motion switch, but apparently it doesn’t work the same as the other cameras. Without having one I can’t do much other than remove the switch if it isn’t working. If you or somebody wants to share the device I can see if it can be done but there’s no guarantee, some of the newer cams seem to use a different protocol for these things that isn’t supported through the API (floodlight pro is one of them)

Happy to share it, do you have email where we can continue conversation?
