Alexa - Device not found?

After reading several threads here and else where is there a definitive answer / solution to Alexa indicating a device is not found?

 

Yet she will actually operate the device, scene, program? Sometimes Alexa will absolutely not turn on a device no matter how many times I ask her. An hour later I will ask her to turn on the exact same device, scene, program, and it will work?!?!

I really walked into that didn't, Eh?

 

I've been checking the App and it does in fact confirm what my spoken phrase is but does not activate the scene. I will review the other logs in case there was something I over looked.

 

I freely admit sometimes I speak very quickly but should that really matter when a back bacon swaggart like me is saying it?

 

Ha . . .
