Tuya fan entity (Duux Whisper Flex) automatically starts oscillating when clicked wherever in the interface about frontend

Guess entity attributes probably aren't correct.

Can you find your fan entity in devtools (when oscillating is off), and show the state attributes listed here?

e.g.:

[tozzke]

That attribute changes accordingly

That does explain it, it has a string "false" for oscillating, but we are expecting a boolean false, as per the fan docs: https://developers.home-assistant.io/docs/core/entity/fan/

In the frontend it is coded such that anything other than a boolean false for oscillating is interpreted as "on", and that causes the panel to think the on value has been selected.

I would report this to the Tuya core integration and point out the discrepancy between this attribute returning a string when it should be a boolean, that should get this fixed. Of couse the frontend could be made more robust to not call the turn on service on incorrectly behaving entities, but I'm not sure if that's a road we want to go down.
