    Amazon Echo - newest HS3 update broke discovery for me

    When I had to restart the computer HS3 is running on today there was a new HS3 update. I'm not sure how old it was because I very rarely have to restart my server that HomeSeer is running on. It seems the new version broke the discovery on the Amazon Echo app. It wouldn't recognize any of my zwave modules anymore. I tried reinstalling the app and skill and it still didn't find anything. I finally restored HS3 to the last version (3.0.0.258) and everything worked fine. Anyone else have this problem?

    I am fairly sure that something was broken with the Echo integration with .280 of HS3. I had gone from .258 to .280 and couldn't get anything to work with my Echo. I am running the .291 BETA version and it's running fine. Odd that the release version still seems to be the broken one.

    Did you also upgrade to V2 of the integration? http://board.homeseer.com/showthread.php?t=180033

      I have been running 289 for a while and have not had any issues. Specifically what happened?

        I had the same problem with .280. After updating to .291 beta it fixed the problem. My new devices are now showing.

          I too am having issues after upgrading....how do I go about going back a version or getting the beta version?

            Broke mine as well. Well kinda broke. The devices that were working befor, now when I give an on or off command. Echo replies that it is not a valid command, however she turns the device in question on or off.

            Also if I re run discovery it says not devises found. Weird

              Any Updates

              Has anyone been able to get this to work? I tried restarting from scratch, installed the H3 beta version and Alexia doesn't see any of my devices

                What version do you have installed of the core HS3 application? If it's .280 the Alexa integration was broken for many (perhaps all) users in that version. Try one of the betas.

                  I don't think it's all users. I updated to .280 today and have been adding virtual devices and the such all day long and my Echo Dot has been responding properly. Turning on and off devices as well as telling HomeSeer to do certain things has all been working. Sorry for the problems!

                    I am on HS3 .293 and under Alexa/Smart Home/Your Devices there is nothing and Alexa can't find any either. I followed the instructions incl. enabling voice control (all were already set to on). Am I looking at the wrong place or why do my devices not show up on Alexa?
