Siri on HomePod mini 16.2 always tries to run deleted shortcut.

I'm experiencing the exact same, as I changed my "Relax" lighting scheme from a shortcut to a scene (both named Relax). I wiped the original "Relax" shortcut from every device I have (iPad, MacBook, Apple Watch, Phone, etc) and toggled iCloud sync for shortcuts across all devices, deleted and reinstalled shortcut apps, etc. I've power cycled, re-paired, factory reset, toggled personal shortcuts, etc - nothing seems to work. Last night, I went full-nuclear and used an Apple Support Configuration profile that totally wiped my entire cache of HomeKit data and re-built HomeKit from scratch (including all of my scenes). Since then, HomeKit has never run better, but HomePods still look for the phantom Relax shortcut instead of recognizing I have a scene in HomeKit called Relax. I'm at a loss.

Perhaps most frustrating is that if I try to create a new Shortcut called Relax (backup plan was to create a shortcut that activates my new single HK scene), Shortcuts tells me I can't name it Relax because I already a scene called Relax.

There has to be a way to clear the cache of shortcuts in iCloud?

Exactly the same problem here on my HomePods.

I had a « turn on the Tv » shortcuts.

Now I’m using HomeBridge to make everything seem as HomeKit accessories.

Ive deleted the shortcut and created a scene called the same, and my HomePods will still try to run the deleted shortcut..

Not exactly helpful, but this eventually sorted itself. After about a week, Siri via HomePod stopped trying to reference the deleted shortcut and uses the scene instead. No apparent rhyme or reason that I could identify. Good luck!

Is there any more updates on this issue as this is something I am currently experiencing too. I used to have shortcuts for my old bulbs but now after switching to thread and deleting those past shortcuts, all that my HomePod responds with is that my shortcuts don’t have a shortcut named with the command I am saying.
