Sense integration - very regular websocket timeouts with interspersed recorder errors (state disagreements on entity state)

[dsbanfield]

The problem

My system is periodically becoming unreachable. I do not think it is crashing, just offline.

The sense integration throws of sporadic but very frequent messages like
2025-01-13 02:07:01.446 ERROR (MainThread) [homeassistant.components.sense.coordinator] Timeout retrieving data: API websocket timed out

These do not seem harmful, but then when entity state info is collected, there are disagreements that are recorded as follows

2025-01-13 00:05:10.141 WARNING (Recorder) [homeassistant.components.sensor.recorder] Entity sensor.microwave_amazon_and_microwave_monthly_energy from integration sense has state class total_increasing, but its state is not strictly increasing.
