Since nobody answered my questions I will just do an update with what I have figured out. So I have removed the integration an readded it with correct region. In my case I had to use “amazon.de” instead of “amazon.com”. After that all amazon devices worked fine for me. image

@ionultd maybe that could be one possible issue

Hi I seem to have the same problem after the last update all Echos are shown but in the HA entity list are shown as unavailabe. Reload of the Alexa SW has been done as well as restart. All was working before the last update.
