I don't know whether it is co-incidence but there another ongoing question relating to tasmota nodes [ts.startsWith is not a function](https://discourse.nodered.org/t/ts-startswith-is-not-a-function/43750) and there is an associated issue on the node itself [Problem after update to 0.9.8 · Issue #26 · DaveMDS/node-red-contrib-tasmota · GitHub](https://github.com/DaveMDS/node-red-contrib-tasmota/issues/26). Some sort of conflict between the node and mosquitto I think.

Edit: Personally I don't use those nodes for Tasmota devices, I just use mosquitto and go through MQTT directly.
