Description
The problem
Tuya integration is not accurately discerning sensor state. Please see demonstration.

Issue Summary:
When the state of a sensor changes in the Tuya Smart Life app, this change is not reflected in Home Assistant. For example, if a door sensor shows as "open" in the Tuya Smart Life app, Home Assistant still shows the sensor as "closed" or does not update the state accordingly.
Steps to Reproduce:
- Set up a door sensor (or similar device) in the Tuya Smart Life app.
- Integrate this sensor with Home Assistant using the Tuya integration.
- Physically open the door and observe the sensor's state change in the Tuya app (e.g., from "closed" to "open").
- Check the state of the same sensor in Home Assistant.
Expected Behaviour:
The sensor state in Home Assistant should match the state shown in the Tuya app. For example, when the door is physically opened and the Tuya app shows the door as "open," Home Assistant should also display the sensor as "open."
Actual Behaviour:
The sensor state in Home Assistant does not update to reflect the change. For instance, even if the door is open and the Tuya app correctly shows it as "open," Home Assistant may still show the sensor as "closed" or not update the state at all.
This issue makes it challenging to rely on Home Assistant for accurate real-time monitoring and automation based on sensor states.
