I bought a Sonos One with Alexa and have a bunch of existing smarthome products that I’ve started adding to Alexa and learning how it works, but I’ve struck a problem.
In my family room I have two Philips Hue bulbs and a heat pump controlled via an Ambi Climate. When I tell Alexa “Alexa, turn off the Family room lights” the lights stay on and the heat pump goes off.
When I look in the Alexa app, both the heat pump and the lights are called “family room”, but even with that setup it doesn’t explain why it should favour the ambi-climate-controlled heat pump (which it sees as a thermostat) over the Philips Hue when I’ve specifically said to turn off the lights.
Even If I rename the heat pump “family room heat pump” it doesn’t help the situation.
Does anyone else have an Alexa setup with lights and a heat pump in the same room, and if so how do you deal with this?
Cheers
