Alexa Discover is not finding ha-bridge devices #1371

Closed CPM-luvr closed 2 years ago

CPM-luvr commented 2 years ago

This system has been working fine for years without major problems. As of a couple days ago, Alexa responded with "not working" or whatever. I went through the whole system and found nothing. Then I deleted all the devices on Alexa and ran Discover. No devices found on ha-bridge. I checked the system again, shut off firewalls, etc and still found nothing. Updated to 5.4.1, still nothing. I tried to change the log level on ha-bridge but it did not change. Also, this bridge is NOT secured.

It seems that Amazon has changed something. Any ideas are welcome.

It turns out that Alexa stopped using the ha-bridge control port that was configured. It works again after changing the port to 80 or 8080.
