Device becomes unresponsive on Alexa

mariomaz87 opened this issue · comments

Hi,
I've just installed the plugin and configured one switch to be available in Alexa. I added the switch, it worked for a while but then became "unresponsive" on Alexa. If I reset Homebridge it works again for a few minutes and then stops. On Homebride.ca check number 5 is red (Date of last plugin response), everything else is green.
This is my config:

{
"name": "Alexa",
"username": "xxx",
"password": "xxx",
"pin": "481-71-980",
"routines": false,
"blind": false,
"door": false,
"debug": false,
"deviceListHandling": "allow",
"deviceList": [
"Dummytvspentaalexa"
],
"platform": "Alexa"
}

Can you suggest somethings? Thanks!

Please try lowering the KeepAliveTimeout setting, to 10 minutes or 5 minutes

Thanks, I tried installing the latest beta and the problem seems solved. Do you want me to try installing the previous version and try your settings?

Facing the same issue since yesterday.
KeepAliveTimout is „9“.

Any other suggestions?

@alekz44 Can you try disabling the skill and enable it again on the Amazon Alexa App

Will try it tomorrow.
I guess all Homebridge devices than have to be reconnected? Will be some work with 56 devices :(

They should just reconnect

Thank you very much! Works again! And all devices still in correct order.
Hope it stays.
Thanks again!!:)
