Homekit says "No Response" to KP125M
The outlet responds to the Kasa app, and seemed to install correctly into Homekit. But then Homekit shows "No Response" and cannot control the outlet.

I would recommend reconnecting via the HomeKit process to see if it was simply a bad connection. Recently, I have seen a few cases where a user's Matter / Homekit Hub is isolated or on an IoT network, meaning that the plug cannot communicate with the Hub. Are you able to make sure that your plug is able to communicate over your local network with your Homekit Hub?
The Kasa App's connection is simply a Wi-Fi connection and does not require/make use of any hubs on your network.

@Riley_S The problem seemed to be in Homekit. I deleted and reinstalled the Kasa app. Using the Kasa app I added the outlets to Kasa, then they appeared in the Apple Home app and were responsive.

@Flyguy62 I have had this occur about 4 times since setting up my Kasa outlets. The solve has been pretty easy. My Wifi is dual broadcast - 2.4 and 5 Ghz. I simply turn off the 5 Ghz band for about 30 seconds and everything re-registers in homekit, then I turn 5G back on. The process for toggling the broadcast frequency varies from router to router, but it is available on most.
