@jonathanweinberg, most of the issues I was having revolved around ports and IP addresses. My Mosquitto broker was set to ports 1883 (broker port) and 8883 by default, I had to change the broker port to 1883 and the bridge port to 8080 on the SmartThingsBridge. I also forgot that I hadn't changed anonymous to false after changing my username and password on the MQTT broker. I also messed with the broker host IP address and eventually changed it to match the MQTT server, which I found in the log when I restarted it. After that, I had to go through and delete all of the settings in my SmartThings API and recreate them. I think I also had to change my config settings, so double check that...I used a light to check if it was working.

switch:
  - platform: mqtt
    name: "Laundry_Room_Light"
    state_topic: "smartthings/Laundry_Room_Light/switch/state"
    command_topic: "smartthings/Laundry_Room_Light/switch/cmd"
    payload_on: "on"
    payload_off: "off"
