Timed out connecting to lightstrip

[csbertran]

The problem

I can't get the Yeelight integration with a Lighstrip to work properly over time.
The initial setup works without a problem, but after 1-2 days the connection to the lightstrip is lost and a “Timed out trying to the bulb at 192.168.0.120:55443” error appears in the integration. Reloading the integration or restarting HA does not solve the problem.
I don't think it's a problem with the LED strips either since I can control them through the Yeelight mobile app (even through Alexa). It just doesn't work for me in HA.
To make it work again I have to reset the LED strip and reconnect it to the network so that Home Assistant detects it again - but it fails again after 1-2 days.
