Can you manually turn the lamp on/off via the echo app? Make sure you are not using house hold account when you voice control it. Pay attention to the device name of the lamp. You should say the device name on Kasa. Change device name may help too.

Yes it works from within the app. Voice control also works using the echo dot which we have elsewhere. It’s just the echo show which doesn’t activate the plug/lamp. As it works via the dot I don’t think changing the name would help. ☹️

Thank you Shield101!I hadn’t realised but we had set up as a household account and reverting to a single account solved the problem. Great.Odd that this only seems to affect Echo Show and not the Dot!Thanks once again for your help.
