Kasa integration stopped working

I’m trying to collect all the issues with Sense/Kasa here. The KP115 / KP125 have a known anomalous behavior that seems to break the integration, but only on some types of network gear. My big issue are HS110s that become network zombies. They become unpingable from some clients, stop talking to Sense, yet can work OK with the Kasa app. The ping issue tells me there is something more than just a problem with the integration.
