Turn off/on all devices in room with Siri

In the past, I was able to ask Siri to turn off/on (room) and all devices in (room) would turn on/off. Recently Apple TV will not turn on/off. It does turns on/off saying, turn on/off (room) Apple TV. I've tried every Siri phrase and can't this command back.

iMac 21.5″, macOS 10.15

If this is just isolated to Siri not working for tv commands and it is working when you ask other questions, like hey Siri how’s the weather etc. you can try troubleshooting HomeKit on the Apple TV:

On the Apple TV in Settings - Users & Accounts - Default User - iCloud - sign out

Restart your Apple TV- then sign back in.

You must set up AirPlay & HomeKit again on the ATV after signing back in - have your iPhone handy to facilitate this.

Test again

If it’s still not working I’d consider rebooting your wifi modem .
