Removing light and readding as switch in alexa app wont work #39401

Feedback

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.

Whatever i try, Alexa adds my input_boolean as a light. I cant use it as a light, because i have to build a skill in the alexa app that reacts to changes in my boolean input.

If i try do discover switches it says it found a light and adds it as light, with no option to change it.
