Disabling Philips Hue Integration

Configuration
1

I am sorry if this has been answered previously.
I am trying to disable the Philips Hue integration in Home Assistant.

I have tried the following lines in configuration.yaml:

discovery:
  ignore:
    - philips_hue

But I am still observing that the Philips Hue Integration causing my devices to not register with Alexa.

How can I remove or completely disable the integration?

Thanks in advance.

Update: Observing following error message in the logs even after ignoring the Philips Hue Integration
