node-red-contrib-amazon-echo: node doesn't work with umlaut/mutation

SUMMARY

Hey, I cannot use the german umlaut/mutation in the name of the echo device. For example I want to use “Verstärker” as echo device. When I search for new devices, Amazon only finds this “Verstärker”.

I thought it will work with “Verstaerker”. Amazon notice then a “Verstaerker” device. But when I say “Turn Verstärker on” the echo devices says that there is no device called “Verstärker”.

Could be an Alexa Issue as well. Looks like the name is published correctly by the node: image
