All you did was cloned the module and added to the config file the code that they have listed?

{
    module: 'MMM-OnScreenMenu',
    position: 'bottom_right',
},
{
    module: 'MMM-AlexaOnOff',
    config: {
        devices: [{ 
              name: "Magic Mirror",
              on: { 
                notification: "ONSCREENMENU_PROCESS_ACTION",
                payload: { actionName:'monitorOn' }
              },
              off: { 
                notification: "ONSCREENMENU_PROCESS_ACTION",
                payload: { actionName:'monitorOff' }
              },
        }]
    }
}

I go step by step, save it, and my Alexa won’t discover my mirror. Did you have to configure anything else? I must be missing something. I have a 3rd gen dot working with a Raspberry Pi 3b both on the same network.

Gen.) and it discovers the software WeMo the MMM-AlexaOnOff module without any problems.

Playing a video?? Never tried, as I don’t use MM2 for playing videos.

With these two I can use Alexa to activate and deactivate modules on my mirror.

Works without any problems.
