When I first set up my A/V devices for Alexa a week ago, I was able to set the volume using a negative number (my receiver shows dB which runs from -80 to 0 in steps of .5).  Yesterday (first time I've used it since I first set it up and tested it a week ago) it said that it didn't support that command.  I changed my programming in ISY to accept positive numbers in the state variable and convert it to a negative number before setting the value in my nodeserver node and that works.

Did something change with the last update on the 8th?  In addition, the Volume up/down isn't working.  Instead of adding/subtracting from the state variable, it's doing some weird appending.  I changed the precision of the state variable back to 0 and the up/down started working again.

There has been no changes to AV for quite a while

Could it be caused by a change on the Amazon side of things?  At first I thought maybe I didn't say "set volume to minus 20...." when I first tested it, but my wife assured me that I did and it worked.

Sure, that is possible
