Hi there.
My first post to OH community. Hope its helpful.

OH 3.1.0
Sony Audio Binding 3.1.1 (downloaded as .jar file, installed to the addons directory
bundle:list | grep Sony
237 | Active | 80 | 3.1.1 | openHAB Add-ons :: Bundles :: Sony Binding
The receiver Thing STR-DN1060 D3531F (ID:sony:scalar:ac9b0ad3531f)
Defined IP address and port for the receiver thing is 10.1.0.125:10000
Near as I can tell the binding works great!.. Mostly.
It recognizes my Sony STRDN-1060 receiver and I am able to control things/items pretty much as I care too. However…
The issue is this.
Everynight the power to the media cabinet that the Sony receiver is mounted in, is powered off to save energy. The next day when the cabinet is powered on and the STR-DN1060 is powered on, the STR-DN1060 thing remains in a communication error state (COMMUNICATION_ERROR Error connecting to device: not reachable ) rendering any of the Items linked to the STR-DN1060 Thing unuseable. This happens even if I manually power on the STR-DN1060.
After some troubleshooting, I have figured out the STR-DN1060 Thing Scalar Web URL port number loses the assigned port of 10000 and gets reset to the default 52323. (Like this http://10.1.0.125:53232/dmr.xml). When I reconfigure the STR-DN1060 Scalar URL back to http://10.1.0.125:10000, the STR-DN1060 thing comes online again, and I am able to control the linked items. Here is a snippet of the configuration from the org.openhab.core.thing.Thing.json file:
When working

“deviceMacAddress”: “AC:9B:0A:D3:53:1F”,

}

As I am totally new to OH as of about 2 months ago, my question to the wiser more experienced folks is what have I misconfigured to make this happen repeatedly but near as I can tell not consistenly? (that is, sometimes the receiver starts just fine with port 10000).
I’d appreciate any solutions or insights into the issue.
Thanks
