Alexa randomly can't find devices

When I tell Alexa to turn something on or off, it said something like “device not found in profile”. The device were showing up in the Alexa app but they were shown as not working properly.

I deleted the the devices and tried discovering them again. After a few tries it worked once, however the problem reoccurred and it’s not rediscovering them anymore.

My other physical that use skill such as a Roku and Nest are working fine.

I’m tried using both the emulated hue component and HA bridge on two different systems. I had both working in the last few days.

Any thoughts on what may be going on or other ways I could do to get Alexia working with HA. I really don’t want to use a pay per mo. service.

emulated hue had breaking changes in the last release. Review the configuration for both systems.

Upgraded HA, reviewed the breaking changes and still no luck. The emulated hue devices are getting detected now but they’re saying “this device isn’t responding”.

what type are the devices? This has been a problem with non-light devices for some time.

Some duplicate entries appeared Alexa app few minutes after the upgrade. I removed them and it seems to work now.

(but yes, they were all hooked to a light mqtt switch in HA)

Thanks for the help, I’ll post again if I run into anymore problems.
