Hi everyone,
got some inside info from Amazon. Looks like there's an update rolling out these days which mutes lady A for for a while.

Hi all.

A number of my Alexa's have been acting very weird today. They are responding to the wake words but thats where its ending. I couldn't get the time, weather reports, spelling words etc. I wiped one device as I thought it was going bye bye. When I realised more devices were acting the same I decided to change the language on another device and this worked. So I changed the languages on the other faulty devices.
So if your devices are doing the same do the following:
1. go to the alexa app.
2. go to devices.
3. select the device you want to change.
4. go to settings.
5. swipe to  languages.

This is when it gets a wee bit tricky, as it only says english so you just might not know what english you'll get. I haven't a clue which one I'm using but Alexa can now spell dog.
