Has something happened with this issue? My echo devices decided to "upgrade" to Alexa+ without asking. Things seem to be working with lighting control

are we saying it is "safe" to upgrade to alexa plus? by safe, I mean that it no longer causes all of the problems that it used to cause as noted here: https://forum.universal-devices.com/topic/45665-don%E2%80%99t-upgrade-to-alexa/

Same thing here: it self upgraded to Alexa+ just a few days ago. So far, things seem to be working. My wife's (lack of) patience quickly lets me know if something is amiss!

I tried enabling Alex Plus and now all of my devices get this reply from Alexa:

"I can't control the device because its skill is disabled. you can find the skill and enable it again in the alexa app".

I tried diabling and re-enabling the v3 universal devices skill and it still doesn't work.

suggestions?

Mine is working, but it's often slower to respond. Sometimes she'll say that the controller is not responding, but the command ends up working anyway, after a delay that can be 10 seconds or more.

Another thing I've noticed is that it appears to sometimes be sending a command twice. I haven't yet made a connection with those "non responding" controller messages (like maybe it retries?). You don't noice it with lights, but I did see it happen with opening the garage door, because if it sends another command to trigger the iolinc, the second command will stop the opening door, leaving the door half open. I have a similar issue with a toggle type command that turns on/off a video fireplace. I ask it to turn it off which it does, then it does it again, which leaves it on at the main menu. I'd have to add lockout timer code to avoid this.
