This Monday, some of my newer Echo devices were updated to Alexa Plus. Now, only the older Echo without Alexa Plus can open and close roller blinds or turn lights on and off. Do you know how to solve this problem?
Regards
ugh yeah ive seen bits of this after the alexa plus push. older echos keep the classic skill path and keep working, newer ones get weird about discovering / routing to the openhab skill.
in my experience worth trying in order:
- disable + re-enable the openHAB skill on the amazon account, then “discover devices” again from a plus echo
- check the openHAB cloud connector / alexa app device list and see if the blinds/lights still show as linked on the plus devices
- reboot the plus echoes (pull power, not just soft) after rediscovery
not sure if amazon broke the skill handshake on plus or if its a discovery cache thing. if rediscovery does nothing, posting your openHAB version + whether you use the official skill vs hue emulation probably helps the binding folks narrow it.
