ESPHome: MQTT over Websockets?
4 projects | /r/Esphome | 8 Jan 2023

Thanks for digging into this! Based on your response and the response from u/antirobot, it appears neither the ESPHome server nor the embedded client support wsMQTT (makes sense because I was looking in vain for an option to specify the connection type). It appears HA only recently added support for wsMQTT, so I'm not too surprised.

How can i send qos 1 mqtt messages to aws?
1 project | /r/IOT | 23 Jan 2023

So looking at the docs from the library you mentioned, in the limitations section it mentions that TLS 1.2 is not supported. That is definitely required for connecting to AWS IoT Core.
ESPHome: MQTT over Websockets?
4 projects | /r/Esphome | 8 Jan 2023

Good insight! Thanks for digging into the embedded code. Indeed, the library from which async-mqtt-client was forked has an outstanding issue to add wsMQTT support.

Ah. In practice mqtt is lightweight enough of a protocol that it should rarely block long enough to hide a button press. But https://github.com/marvinroger/async-mqtt-client might be what you're looking for.
