Yes the Dot is included.
I have just run a test on my system (El Capitan). I have one Echo and six Dots. I used the Dot for testing.
To test, I deleted all devices from my Indigo Hue Bridge Devices, Deleted the Hue Bridge devices, disabled the plugin and then deleted the plugin to start from square one.
I then used the Alexa App to forget all devices.
I downloaded the Alexa-Hue Bridge (v2.0.2) from Github and installed it.
I then defined a Hue-Bridge and added 9 devices (LIFX lamps) to the Hue-Bridge and saved it.
I then asked Echo (Dot) to discover devices.
On the first attempt none were found. I tried again and nine devices were discovered and the voice commands to turn them on and off work.
So at least I have put my mind at rest that from a cold start it works (on my system). We just need to work out why it isn't working on yours.
Just to double check that you have run the command in the documentation for checking for other apps that using UPNP port 1900?
Can you try to do a discover again - though I guess you have already done this.
If it still doesn't work, can you turn on all the debug options in the plugin config, save the config settings and then reload the plugin.
Wait a couple of minutes and then get Alexa to do a discover devices.
Once the discovery has ended, please PM me the log so that I can look at what is going on.
The log can be found by clicking
Show Event Logs folder in the Event Log window and the log I want to see is called
plugin.log in the
opensource.alexa-hue-bridge folder.
