Model: HS200  
Hardware Version: V3
Firmware Version: 1.1.3

The two simple scenes "lights on" "lights off" i created in the Kasa app appear in my Amazon/Alexa account as well as all  5 devices/switches in the Scenes, however "Alexa, lights on" "Alexa, lights off" does not  "trigger" the Scene. I can control each individual switches/device. Switch name "bedroom", "Alexa, bedroom on" works fine.  I have other devices that also use Scenes and they trigger just fine. I've been careful NOT to use duplicate naming. Anyone else experiencing this problem, please?

Have you tried using Alexa routines to create a similar scene?

@jimhurst53 I wonder if lights on/off is a reserved word.... like its trying to do something else when you do that.
