> First, what do you mean by blocking? Do you have other items not being discovered? Secondly, have you tried to delete the relevant device if not all OH-related from your Alexa account prior to triggering the discovery? The item definition you provided looks good. So I wouldn’t expect any discovery issue with the one you provided.
