This my be a configuration error on my part (I had the Hue emulator still running, even though I thought I was using the ISY Portal.

 

I can no longer turn a scene off.  For example, I have a "cooking" scene for the kitchen defined in the portal.  Then I run "discover" and Alexa find its.   I can ask Alexa to turn the scene on ("Alexa, turn on cooking") if I need more light and my hands are full.   However, I can no longer say "Alexa, turn off cooking" - no error, no chime, the blue ring on the Echo just turns off like nothing happened).

 

If I say "Alexa, tell Izzy to turn off cooking" I get the response "turn off which device?"  If I answer with "cooking" I still get the same prompt.  If I answer with a regular device name ("couch lights") then I get a proper response/action (couch lights turn off and the Echo responds with "Ok turning off couch lights").

 

Am I going crazy?   Was it just my Hue emulator doing the "off" actions before?

No, there's a thread devoted to current issues with spoken phrases being unrecognized.  Hopefully this will soon be resolved.
