I have a LightwaveRF devices that I connect with the RFXCom plug-in. They don't report back their states which means that if someone turns one on manually, HomeKit thinks it's still off and a voice command (or shortcuts command) to turn them off will fail. Is there a way to force an on or off command regardless of what HomeKit thinks the state is?

Hi
That would likely be an issue.
There is no easy way to send off when device is already off from within homekit. Well there probably is, but will be a bit of code change and UI to select probably difficult. Wouldn’t be that keen to implement… although will have a think. What Homekit device? - switch only? (Might be able to add a new selector when back just for this)
Alternatively - could create a Virtual Device and add that to HomeKit. With Action Group that always sends off/on regardless of state. That would likely achieve the same outcome.
