For some reason alexa suddenly wont control any of my tp link devices (plugs switches special switches). When I give any command (on, off, dim) alexa responds "I dont know how to set DEVICE NAME to that setting" anyone know how to fix this and why it happens?

I was also successful, by disabling the Kasa app in Alexa and re-enabling it. It found moth of my switches and was able to control them fron the Alexa app and by voice. Thanks for the advice!

Unfortunately, the Kasa app can not be a trigger for other applications like Alexa. We do have smart actions where camera motion can be a trigger, but only to affect our other smart devices like the bulbs or plugs: https://www.tp-link.com/us/support/faq/2567/

Yep, that worked for me too after much frustration and trying many other things.
Thank you
