see if this works.
In Settings on your Apple TV > Accounts > iCloud
(Make sure you're signed in with your Apple ID)
Scroll down to HomeKit and check to see that it says Connected.
If the HomeKit setting reads Not Connected, click to connect.
Sometimes signing out of icloud then back in can resolve issues.
Also restart Apple TV
Reboot your router, unplug for a minute
Or you might have to remove it in the Home App and Set it up again

First start by deleting the non-existent Apple TV in the Home App.
You should only have one that says “connected”, which is most likely your “office” one.
Remove the one saying “disconnected”
Long press on it to bring up details. Scroll down to remove.
Restart Apple TV
Then unplug Apple TV for about 6 seconds
In settings check it’s set up to Homekit
If this fails to resolve it, you will need to remove the other Apple TV from the Homekit and set it up again
Sorry, I just saw you don’t have two Apple TV. This is where you hsve a mismatch.
If it’s showing an extra Apple TV,, delete them both in home App. Not in edit on home page in home app, that only takes it off the home page.
Long press on each to bring up settings, scroll down and tap remove.
Remove both of them, , then you should proceed with set up again.
Set up
Thanks again, but I don’t think I explained it correctly. On my “Home” page of iOS app, it says Apple TV not responding. When I click on the home icon in upper left the attached picture comes up (I crossed out people for privacy purposes). Note I only have one Apple TV in the house.
To be sure, when you say there’s two ATVs in your home App, there’s two in the Same Room it’s assigned to? In the Rooms tab on home app? This would be wrong if you only have one ATV.
If you set it to be a favourite, it would also be in the home tab and room tab. In this case it’s in your home app twice. The favourites (Home Tab) are just for easy access when you launch home app.
Two in the same tab is wrong.
I have tried this and I am signed in to the same accounts. My Home app still says I have two Apple TVs - I only have one. Neither comes up as connected on the Home app.
