Lost Alexa control of 3 TP-Link KL125 Multi-color bulbs this morning. I turned them off last night with voice control, then as of this morning... nothing. Zip. They all three work fine, however, with the Kasa app on my phone.

Alexa sees them, but just can't control them. It doesn't seem to be the Kasa Alexa skill/integration because all other TP-Link lights, plugs and switches still work normally via Alexa and multiple Echo devices. Just these three bulbs. All smart bulbs, switches and plugs in my house are TP-Link.

If I delete them from Alexa, they are undiscoverable when trying to add a new device. If I delete them from Kasa, Alexa will discover them (after I set them back up in Kasa), but once again, can't control them. Change their names in Kasa and Alexa will pick up the name change, but still can't control them ("There was a problem").

Neither the Kasa skill (nor the Kasa app on my phone) nor the Alexa app have updated recently. All three lights have the most recent firmware (and have for a long time). I don't know if the there was an Echo update last night, but I doubt it would matter since it seems to be an Alexa problem and not an Echo problem.

Guess I need to try disabling/enabling the Alexa Kasa skill after work today (even though all other Kasa skill-controlled devices are functioning properly). At my trouble-shooting wits-end for the morning.
