Unless you’re actively using the app an online vs offline server shouldn’t make that much of a difference, right (especially on Wear OS)? It’s still making the same requests, just getting a different response. Nothing to keep alive/connected on a watch when the app is closed.
I do not see any errors or attempt to communicate out. At this point we may need a developer who experiences this issue to take a closer look. I would also recommend fixing the issue with HA going down as it seems to put the server in a bad state which may also be the cause of the issue.
