Alexa/Echo As Second Matter Device Admin
I am able to successfully onboard Matter switches from two manufacturers, and a Matter wall outlets from one manufacturer. By matter standards, the Apple TV running tvOS v17.1 is the primary or first Admin. I want to add A Gen5 Echo Dot as the second matter Admin. To set up the second admin:
- Launch the Alexa App
- Select Add (+)>>Device>>Other>>Matter
- Does device have a matter logo [yes]
- //at this point, I believe you need to type, not scan, the numeric code as the code on the sticker would have been used to add to My Home/Apple TV
- Go to the My Home App
- Select the device>Settings>>Turn on Pairing Mode>[Copy Code]
- Return to the Alexa App
- Place the device in pairing mode per MFR instructions (7 second press of on button)
- Enter the numeric code from My Home app in the Alexa app
- Alexa looks for the device but does not find it, despite getting a new Pairing code from the My home app.
Is there a step I'm missing? I have no issue starting off with a Samsung Smart Things Hub, then adding the same device to Alexa as the second Admin.
