After a power outage one of my HomePod minis disappeared from the Home app on my iPhone. I thought to reset it and re-add it, but the 10 second method does not reset it. To add to the confusion, it appeared briefly in Home as not responding, although it is responding to Siri commands and playing Apple Music at random.
