"You want me to turn up ____, right?"

Featured Replies

Posted

Starting this morning, when I say "Alexa, Brighten _____ ", instead of immediately brightening that device, Alexa responds with "You want me to TURN UP _____, right?" and then I have to say YES to have her brighten that device.

Anyone know why this is happening?

Amazon change something?  UD change something?

I am using this Skill: 

ISY Optimized for Smart Home V3

Thanks,

Stuart Crane

There has been no changes to the skill. Must be an Amazon change.

No Change here in Ontario, Canada. Brighten stills responds with "OK"

Ok, thanks.  Still happening here, but only from one Echo and one ISY "device" (actually a Scene). 

If anyone else is getting this, let me know. 

Also, Benoit, reach out to your Amazon/Alexa contacts and see if they changed anything and why I am getting this.

Thanks!

I think this may be due to the spoken used. It might be similar to another one you have, and Alexa is asking you if this is the correct device.

Can you try changing the spoken?
