Help needed - Zigbee2MQTT Error: Failed to start EZSP layer with status=HOST_FATAL_ERROR.
Post Body

I am trying to get zigbee2MQTT configured. I am using the latest version of HAOS and I keep getting this error message:

In the configuration for zigbee2MQTT I have...

For MQTT:

server: mqtt://core-mosquitto:1883
user: mqtt
password: mqtt

For serial:

port: >-
  /dev/serial/by-id/usb-ITead_Sonoff_Zigbee_3.0_USB_Dongle_Plus_6cfeb36c5cd8ed119f456f6162c613ac-if00-port0
adapter: ember

I have been following the various youtube walkthroughs and have created a local mqtt_user, and assigned that user in the configuration file and in the MQTT service. I haven't been able to find anything online specifying how to fix this error. Please let me know if I am missing any needed information and I will add to this post as an edit.
