Works fine if I create a portal entry just for the dimming light switch itself, if I use the scene which includes remote switches, it doesn't work. 

 

Brighten and Dim work fine but then I'd have to say it a bunch of times to get it at the level I want. Not a good user experience.

Insteon does not support assigning an On Level when turning On a Scene.

 

Set Scene 'xxxx' On 50% - this is not supported by Insteon

 

rest/nodes/<scene number>/cmd/On/128 - this is not supported by Insteon

I added a new scene with a preset level to 30% that includes the living room load. I called it "Living Room Lights Low". I added to the portal in the spoken / node section and called it "Living Room Lights To Low" and "Living Room Lights Low". Ir re-ran discovery and then tried various "turn on living room lights to low" or "set living room lights to low" or "set living room lights to low on" but to no avail. Alexa tells me every time there is no device with that name. 

Try a simpler spoken such as "living room low." Then say "Alexa, turn living room low on," or "Alexa, turn on living room low."

 

Also, I added a spoken for the device in addition to the scene. The scene's spoken is "living room light.," the device is "living room ceiling." As a result, I can issue, "Alexa, set the living room ceiling Y," where Y is any percent, for example, "Alexa, set the living room ceiling 40." Note that neither "to" nor "percent" is required.

FYI, I've discovered that the word "percent" is indeed optional, unless the context is a group created in the Echo App.; then it seems to be necessary.
