For some reason when i connect the motion sensor to my Homey Pro is doesnt seem to work well. It wil detect motion every now and then but not consistently. When I connect the same device to Alexa gen iV device it works great? Any ideas? At first i thought maybe it had to do with proximity but I tried it in the same room and no difference.

Is it battery powered? Does it start recording after around three minutes of inactivity? Asking this because your problem sounds a lot like mine, and what I have happening with the IKEA motion sensors. They work perfectly in the IKEA app and no HomeKit, but not on Homey.
