I’m experiencing an issue with Alexa that I’m hoping that someone can help me with. I’m currently running HASS.IO (or whatever it’s called now) v108.3 in a VM on ESXi.

Background: I’ve recently moved to a new place. Prior to moving, I excluded all my z-wave devices from my network. Most, but not all, are GE light, dimmers and fan switches. Once settled into my new place, I added back the switches, gave them all the appropriate names, and went on my way.

Then, I went to setup Alexa to work with the new devices. I went into my account and “forgot everything”. Then I went to “Discover Devices”. When it discovered the devices, they all still had the old names. What gives…?

So I went through troubleshooting, and went so far as to rebuild the VM that’s running HA. I’ve reset my Z-Stick, which gave me a new Z-Wave network ID. I’ve re-run the configuration/naming process again, and even the Z-Wave IDs are different for each device. Yet when I tell Alexa to rediscover devices, it still finds the old names.

Is there a way to get Alexa to discover the correct names, and stop discovering names that don’t exist? Or is this an Amazon account issue?
