Multiple IR units

[Caboz]

Hello,

I have 4 xiaomi IR units all configured and working.

But there is a problem, I can't differentiate between the switches, they are all named chuang_mi_ir_switch.

I tried to customise the name but with no luck, the entity is switch.chuang_mi_ir_switch for all the switches and if I restart they are randomly numbered 1, 2,3...

My configuration is as follows:

switch:
  - platform: chuangmi_ir
    host: !secret kitchenchuangmi_ip
    name: "kitchenremote"
    token: !secret kitchenchuangmi_key
    switches:
