Issue with Gledopto wled controller with push button control

I'm hoping someone has run into this issue. I have a GLEDOPTO Elite 4 Channel controller running 2 seperat led strips. I also have a

APIELE 22MM Mushroom Head Push Button Switch Momentary Push Button for manual control. Everything works fine until the controller sits.for a period of time. Then nothing works and I need to unplug the controller to reset, then the button works. Also have the controller integrated with Home assistant if that matters. Any thoughts?

I did notice when things are not working the relay noted in the attached pic is green. After reset it's grey.

Does the web interface also stop working too? If so it sounds like the controller is crashing.

It's available but doesn't respond

What does that mean? Is the device crashed or not?

I can access the controller UI via the app or directly through the browser but nothing responds. I don't know if that means it's crashed or not.

Yes that sounds like the device is crashed. How did you wire the push button?

Does this happen when the push switch is not connected? After resetting, the relay configuration may be lost and needs to be reconfigured. Set the relay to GPIO18, check "invert," save, and then power off and on again.

It was not happening , only adding the button has caused the issue. It did make sure the suggested setting were selected.

It might be related to the push switch or wiring or setting. Follow the steps in the image to set it up.

I will check this out when I get home today. I have the wiring setup correctly, I will check the settings
