Alexa devices offline after upgrade to 0.98

Everything was working fine with 0.97 but then I upgraded to 0.98.4 and now many of my lights do not work with Alexa. I am using the Emulated Hue integration. All of my toggle switches do not work but all of my dimmers do.

When I say “Alexa, turn off master bath light” she says “Master bath light isn’t responding. Please check its network connection and power supply.”

But I can control the light from HA on my phone AND the motion sensor triggers the light just fine.

To me, this seems like an issue with 0.98.x.

I have tried removing the devices from Alexa and re adding them. They show up but still do not work.

Exact same issue over here. It was quite literally out of the blue, and doesn’t seem to be cause directly by an upgrade or config change.

Unfortunately this is causing some distress at home (especially with my wife, who has grown quite used to the Alexa toggle switch automations).
