Describe the bug
When i use "Alexa - Musiccast - Skill (not Musiccast Smart Home Skill!)" states within the musiccast adapter wont change.

For Example (Device Name:Bathroom): Alexa, turn on Bathroom - Bathroom turns on and obeject "power" turns true Alexa, tell Musiccast Bathroom to play favorite number 2 - Bathroom plays Favorite 2 but musiccast instance wont recognize, so "presentrecallnumber", "input" and so on wont change.

Versions:

Thanks for help!
