Siri won't control one specific light switch

My Homebridge install works fine with all but one Insteon light switch (called "Dinning Table Light").

When I try to control that light Siri says "Sorry, I didn't understand all of that" and asks if I want to turn on or off all the lights instead.
I can control the light using a Homekit app, but Siri just won't work.

Any thoughts on what could be going on?

Is there a way to force Siri to refresh names of devices?

Thanks

Mauro

Siri may have a problem recognizing that name. Is that how it's spelled, "dinning"? If you mean the room you dine in, the correct spelling is "dining". "dinning" would rhyme with "winning" so maybe that's what Siri is expecting.

I had it spelled correctly in Indigo but accidentally misspelled it when setting up the room in the Homekit app.

Working fine now. Thanks!
