Both Google Home and Alexa use the device they were initially set up with for communication with `emulated_hue`. In other words: if you remove/replace this device you will also break `emulated_hue`. To recover your `emulated_hue` functionality, backup your `config/emulated_hue_ids.json` file, delete the original one and reboot your Home Assistant instance.
If you added or upgraded to a newer Alexa device and devices are not found, you must change to listen_port: 80. If Alexa responds with "value is out of range for device..." it means switches were automatically added as lights in discovery. Remove each device in the Alexa app. Turn on all the switches in Home Assistant. In the Alexa app go to "Add New Device" select "Switch" and then "other" to add them correctly.
