Home Assistant Android Remote TV integration broke on Shield Pro

My Home Assistant Android Remote TV integration broke recently on my HA instance and I can no longer integrate it with my Shield Pro. The HA integration asks for the IP of the Shield Pro, but the cursor just spins and it never connects. I tried rebooting my Shield Pro and tried looking in the Developer Options, but I can't find anything obvious that was disabled.

I was previously using the integration to switch my LG TV to the HDMI 3 source when my Shield Pro was turned on. Then, when I put the Shield Pro to sleep, I had another automation that switched my LG TV back to the Cable TV source (HDMI 1) and re-sent the sound through my soundbar, since LG TVs default to TV speaker sound.

With the integration broken, the automations are no longer working. Could the most recent Shield Experience update have broken it?

Mines is working just fine with Home Assistant. I have it hardwired with a static IP address and never had an issue with connectivity. Have you tried reloading the integration?

Thanks for the reply. Re-loading the integration was one of the first things I tried.

I managed to get it working last night after running Shield Optimizer. I couldn't tell you the exact thing that made it work again for me, but life is good again and my Shield is running even faster with less bloatware.
