Error when trying to use another library with mysensors

[un4]

Hello, I am new to mysensors. I have success created my first sensor. It is CCS811 CO2 sensor connected to arduino pro mini. To the mini there is also connected RF24 radio. CO2 sensor and the radio share VCC pin.

For the sensor I found a library (https://github.com/maarten-pennings/CCS811) that allows to easily interact with the sensor. If I upload example sketch to the pro mini everything works fine. In the serial monitor I can see the readings from the sensor. If I do the same for the passive node example in order to test my radio, everything works fine and my serial gateway receives messages from my pro mini. However, when I try to combine the two sketches I run into issues.

Basically once I include my sensors library together with CCS811 library the latter fails to setup and gives an error through serial ("ccs811: ping failed (VDD/GND connected? SDA/SCL connected?)"). Upon closer inspection of the CCS811 library, it seems, that the only reason can be that the function i2cwrite fails. Why does it fail with mysensors library included? What am i doing wrong?

Here is the sketch I am trying to use that fails with above described error:

@un4 did you try it without the sleep function enabled?

[krabbi]

How nWake connected? Is it connected to pin or gnd?
I've also just did node with ccs811 sensor, but i've used SparkFunCCS811 library.

@krabbi I have a similar issue as un4 described.
When nWake is connected on GND it works fine, when connecting to D3 (6) it stops working. I'm using the same sketch source as krabbi. Any suggestions?
