Siri Listens to Current Command but Executes Last Command

Using Philips Hue bulbs and bridge.

At some point, I noticed I had to tell Siri twice to successfully turn light on and off. I figured it could be my pronounciation. Then, I did some troubleshooting and saw this.

So, Siri DOES listen correctly to my command, but EXECUTES my LAST command. Even funnier thing is that it seems to work correctly if I insert a non-light related commmand (like weather) in between, there is no issue. But I just can't do two consecuritve light commands at once.

chose homepod as topic but it really is about siri.

So Apple was able to help me resolve this issue. This is due to a glitch in the network connection set by Home app, and can be solved with a network reset.

On any iOS device on the same Wifi network with same Apple ID, Go to Setting -> General -> Reset -> Reset Network Setting.

Then worked like a charm.

my homepods do the same thing when asking to turn a light on or off. If I say ‘turn on/off the living room light’, which Siri does correctly, and then say ‘turn on/off the bedroom light’, Siri responds ‘OK, I turned on/off the living room light.’ Very frustrating.

For me Siri often reports it cannot execute a Homekit command but a few seconds later the device responds - e.g. the LIFX light turns on. Very frustrating!
