Alexa "groups" - can add ISY scene, but saying "Turn out lights" won't work

[telljcl]

I've got Alexa control of many ISY devices and scenes, but recently went about creating some Groups (rooms in my case).

Purpose being so I can say "Turn out the lights" and Alexa will turn out lights assigned to that group / room and I won't have to name the lights.

So I have a particular Echo assigned to the group, and an ISY scene (which I can call specifically via Alexa, no problem) assigned to the group, but when I'm in that room and say "turn out the lights", Alexa says which one, or can't find a device called lights... or something to that effect.

For example, an ISY scene I'm trying is called "Garage lights". I can say "turn on garage lights" from any Alexa and the lights in that scene go on like you'd expect.

I can add that scene, and the Alexa I'm speaking to (the one in the garage in this case) to the Group, but when I say "turn on the lights", it doesn't work.

Must be missing something simple - thanks for any help.

EDIT: Figured it out - had to change the ISY portal settings so that Alexa sees the scene as a "light"
