need Help with Alexa and Device Discovery

Question

i changed my home Network from Fritzbox to Unifi with a UCG, USW Ultra and 2x U6 Pro.

I have an Echo Dot in my living room. I take my phone and start the device search via the Alexa app. I have a new IoT device in my living room, a lamp with Tasmota firmware. I wanted to search for and connect it with Alexa, just like my other lamps and smart plugs, so I can control it with Alexa. I had integrated the other devices with my Fritzbox router back then. That worked without any problems. After switching to Unifi, I can still control the devices that were already integrated without any issues. However, what no longer works is that I can't add new devices. I assume that I've forgotten something and that something is being filtered out, specifically the broadcasting. Can someone help me please?
