My smart bulb used to work great with Alexa. I could control both the brightness and power without a hitch.

 

Around 8-12 or more months ago, I suddenly couldn't control the brightness level anymore. I can still turn the light on/off with voice or text commands in through Alexa, but she can no longer handle commands about dimming or brightening the bulb.

 

Since then, I have been forced to use the Kasa app whenever I want to do so. It's not the worst, especially because Kasa has a great Samsung widget for smart bulbs, but it still sucks.

 

Anybody have a solution here? I've already tried disconnecting and reconnecting the bulb from the Kasa and Alexa apps, uninstalling and reinstalling these apps, and disconnecting the two services before reconnecting them.
