Just hit the same snag. WLED no longer being picked up by Alexa. Used to show up as Royal Phillips. Now nothing Just wondering if others are experiencing this and if there is any solution. Using latest WLED V 0.14.0-b3 with ESP8266. Many thanks for any help and great software.
Was really happy with Alexa till Amazon decided to play around with things. A number of routines, sensors etc have stopped working recently although I changed nothing. Think it might be something to do with introduction of Matter/Thread etc.
On esp32 using latest i can see that working correctly and wled main light is seen by Alexa and also the presets i selected are showed as separate lights . If you could confirm with esp32 else i will also try on 8266
It is working out of the box on a new esp8266 which i just flashed with the nightly build from here WLED installation (wled-install.github.io) . might be clean up your old Alexa entries and add it again .
Hi ALDIY
Have cleared out the Alexa cache and the WLED cache on the mobile device. Also completely turned off the Alexa device and did a fresh search when it came back on for the WLED. Still no luck. Tried half a dozen times. Arghhhh . The good thing to know is that its just my setup and not affecting everyone. So many thanks for confirming that. Will keep on trying and if I find a way to make it work will post. Used to be fine so not sure what changed.
Sorry ALDIY didn’t read your first post. Yes its a ESP32. Many thanks for your help and comments on this. I am a newbie to this so still a lot to learn.
Well. Managed to get it working again. Gave the lights a static IP address and did a couple of more device discovery and it found them. Maybe I didn’t notice it before but manged to find them. Many thanks for confirming it was still working. Gave me the confidence to keep trying.
Very good and yes like you i have setup all my wled and IoT devices to static IP on a dedicated router .Else you could lose track of them and all mess could be there
