Siri says my apologies "I can't control your home security system"

[mkormendy]

For some reason, I can't get Siri's commands to work with my security system.

Homekit and Homebridge, and the alarm.com setup is working perfectly when I go into the Homekit app interface and change the Security Panel status.

But when I ask Siri to do it, it says something along the lines of "I can't control your home security system".

What're you asking it to do and how? See this article.

I simply ask Siri to “arm my security system”. I’m asking my phone .. it is unlocked with Face ID, so I know it’s not a phone authentication issue.

I’ve got a work around for the time being where I tell Siri, “Leaving home” or “Good night” or “Arriving home” and those phrases are tied to corresponding scenes. But it’s not perfect.

Would a scene like "Secure My Home" work?
