TP-Link Kasa driver polling issues

[rea]

I have had the Kasa driver from Chowmain in my system for quite some time now and it's easily one of my favorite drivers-- I have many lights, plugs and switches in the project. Over the past few months, my EA5 has been crashing on me every 7 days and has now been more like every 4-5 days. No new drivers added in that time frame, but I did add another outdoor plug and a Kasa light strip in that time. 

I had Control4 do diagnostics on my system and they found at least a couple of my Kasa devices (dimmer switches also seem to be cycling brightness levels constantly despite not actually being on) pinging the controller excessively. They showed my EA5 getting hit with up to 40 pings in a span of 20 seconds and think this is the culprit for my EA5 outages. 

Has anyone else experienced any similar issues with this driver? I'd hate to lose it!

Mine shows version 20200402, which appears to be the most recent version on the Drivercentral page.

Thinking about trying this driver, @readid you ever figure anything out here?

Took all the instances of the Kasa driver out of my system and still having issues so it doesn't seem like that was the culprit. I plan on adding the driver back into my system once I finally can figure out what is causing my issues...whenever that may be. It's a great driver though and I like the Kasa products.
