I’m trying to connect my HomePod mini to Homey Pro through Matter. All is updated to latest firmware. The pod doesn’t pop up during installation and there’s no qr to scan or code to enter. Tried everything to no avail which leads me to the obvious question, does the pod has to be in installation mode to be discovered? In that case the connection to HomeKit will be lost obviously.  
Any thoughts on this?
