I have many old Amazon Alexa smart plugs and was able to expose them through the Alexa media player add on, but they always display the wrong status when you control them with Alexa. Is there anyway to fix this? Why doesn’t Alexa media player pick up the change and change the state of the plug?

You're talking about the Alexa integration that exposes HA entities to Alexa

No other way around
Amazon plugs to HA
Sorry I worded it weird

So they're added to Alexa and you're trying to pull them into HA via AMP?

Yes and they are in but they always display the wrong state when they are turned on and off using Alexa but once you turn them on or off using HA they show the right state
But showing the wrong state breaks my automatons

Alexa Media Player is essentially abandoned. You may not get help on that

I believe changing this to 1 fixes it but is this harmful? Seems resource intensive

What plugs are these exactly?

Integrating them this way should be the very last option

What other way is there ? I think they are limited to HAVE to use Alexa api?
