ciao Problem with avahi

[dMopp]

Describe The Bug:
Iam using openwrt with avahi to Proxy mdns across vlans. With ciao as service in homebridge, homekit cant discover the homebridge (both in same network) after few seconds anymore. Restart avahi, homebridge or WiFi on my client solves the issues for some seconds.. When i switch back to bonjour HAP the issue is solved.

Do you possibly have any more details than just "it doesn't work?". I know its kinda hard to debug.
What is your setup? Is the device where homebridge/ciao is running on connected to multiple interfaces? Any docker/vm magic involved?
Running with DEBUG=ciao:* enabled, what does ciao log which interfaces are used for advertising?

Hi,

Logs will follow later on when i have time.

Setup:

• x86 OpenWRT Router
• BHyve VM with Debian installed. Single Network Adapter and IPv6/IPv4 DualStack. That's my homebridge VM.
• TrueNAS Hypervisor (BSD/BHyve) (DualNetwork Adapter but LLAG Interface exposed to the Hypervisor)
• AppleTV as Automation Server
• iPhone as client.

All on the same network / VLAN.

I will Provide as much Info as possible because i know that stuff like that is horrible to debug
