Alexa devices aren't being added to Homebridge

I am getting the error "After initialization - HttpError(Error getting smart home device state. Reason: Timeout)" and none of the alexa devices are being added to homebridge.

I thought it was a cookie issue and so I did this: Instructions:

1. Open your homebridge server configuration site in your browser
2. Open the terminal (Three dots next to power button
3. Execute the following command: rm persist/.homebridge-alexa-smarthome
4. Restart homebridge.

I was able to get the "Amazon Alexa Cookie successfully retrieved. You can close the browser.

However I did not see the homebridge log show the "[HomebridgeAlexaSmartHome] Successfully authenticated Alexa account" message.

since the error was 0 devices provided in settings but 50 matching Alexa smart home devices were discovered, I decided to try to add them one by one in the settings of the plugin. Most of these 50 Alexa devices are homekit compatible, I only have 6 or 7 that are Alexa only that I need homebridge to add them to homekit. Adding them by device name through the settings on the plugin worked for what I needed. It was just odd that this was working a few weeks ago, and then I couldn't get it to work.
