im having a problem with alexa not being able to control devices since they have the same name. i have tryde to use the forget option in alexa webpage. and i tryde to # out the part i don’t like it to use, but alexa keeps detecting them and adding them back. im using qubino flush dimmer, home-assistant adds about 6 instances for every module.
the problem is that it gets adade bothe as a dimmer and as a relay (on/off) in home assistant. i have hidden the on/off option in home-assistant web interface but i can’t hide it for alexa.
i found the solution myself: 1 remove all devices from alexa, just go to devices on alexa using a browser not in the app) then scroll to the botten, and remove all devices.
then go to home assistant, and under cloud ad so it looks like this: observe that the forum is adjusting all text to the left, in other words it should be 2 spaces for every line under cloud. (as normal)
cloud:
alexa:
filter:
exclude_entities:
EXEMPEL: - switch.qubino_zmnhdd1_flush_dimmer_switch
exempel should be the devices/node you like to hide from alexa.
now go back to alexa using a browser and run discover again (or tell alexa to do it)
now the node should be hidden from alexa
