Hi Chris!
I ran into the same issue exactly you described, but now I managed to get it work finally. Here are the two things which caused me the trouble:
In the appdeamon.yaml under the mqtt section the client_id password and username should not be surrounded by quote marks.
The second issue was in apps.yaml, at:
panelRecvTopic: “tele/nspanel_1/RESULT”
panelSendTopic: “cmnd/nspanel_1/CustomSend”
here note the _1 posfix after the nspanel. In the ESPHome example yaml it is without the postfix, so they communicate on different topics.
During investigation I downloaded an mqtt client on my phone and tried to watch the traffic. By doing so I quickly realised, that the appdaemon has wrong credentials, as it is trying to send the time every minute. Later when I saw data from both devices, it was obvious that the topics are different. After fixing it, in less than a minute the screen started to work like a charm.
Hope this helps, but if not I think you should start investigating the mqtt communication.
Regards,
Banderas

Had the same problem. The AppDaemon log file in HomeAssistant -> Add-Ons -> AppDaemon -> Log did help me a lot to debug
