Panasonic Viera TV discovered as new device when already configured

See original GitHub issue

The problem

My Panasonic Viera TV is configured in YAML as follows:

# Panasonic Viera
panasonic_viera:
  host: !secret tv_ip
  name: Panasonic Viera TV
  turn_on_action:
    - service: wake_on_lan.send_magic_packet
      data:
        mac: !secret tv_mac
Screenshot 2021-05-07 at 10 43 13 Even though it's already configured it's discovered as new device, and this cannot be dismissed.

It’s not possible to set panasonic_viera to be ignored by discovery: as this is not a valid value for ignore:, so this does not work:

discovery:
  ignore:
    - panasonic_viera

The issue still persists unfortunately.

I may have a look at the library itself as well, there’s maybe some improvement on that side that could help make the integration in HA easier. In the meantime, we might be able to find a quick solution for this current problem and limit the changes needed to get a quick fix in upcoming release.
